Benny & Mice

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Benny & Mice was an Indonesian comic strip made by Benny Rachmadi and Muhammad "Mice" Misrad.

Background

[edit]

Benny & Mice first appeared in 2003 in the Sunday edition of the Kompas newspaper. The comic strip features Benny as tall and frizzy-haired, while Mice has glasses and a big nose.[1] Each comic strip has a different title picture which always resembles Benny and Mice.

The final Benny & Mice newspaper comic strip was published on 4 July 2010. The following week (11 July 2010), it was replaced by Mice Cartoon drawn solo by Muhammad "Mice" Misrad. Benny Rachmadi remains a working cartoonist despite the end of his partnership with Muhammad Misrad.
