Ripley's Believe It or Not has been presenting the incredible and the unusual in illustrated form since Robert Ripley's first "Champs and Chumps" comic published on Dec. 19, 1918. Currently, B.I.O.N. is illustrated by John Graziano, who has been working as an artist and illustrator since 1983, when he received a certificate in illustration from the Newark School of Fine and Industrial Arts. He has designed trading card sets and a portrait series based on the 1960s cult TV show "Dark Shadows." John has also created comic strips for "Scream Queens" magazine, designed t-shirts graphics and created storyboards and concept drawings for Hollywood films. Researcher Lucas Stram has worked since 2004 as the voice behind the cartoon, reviewing potential stories, filtering through the hundreds of weekly submissions and putting together the stories for John to bring to life. New submissions are always welcome. <a href="http://www.ripleys.com/submit/">Just click here. </a> www.gocomics.com/ripleysbelieveitornot Fri, 25 May 2012 00:00:00 +0000 Fri, 25 May 2012 04:10:54 -0500 http://www.gocomics.com//ripleysbelieveitornot/2012/05/25 Ripley's Believe It or Not by John Graziano for May 25, 2012<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/uclick/ripleysbelieveitornot/~4/mShJTld9erY" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/uclick/ripleysbelieveitornot/~3/mShJTld9erY/25 http://www.gocomics.com//ripleysbelieveitornot/2012/05/25 http://www.gocomics.com//ripleysbelieveitornot/2012/05/24 Ripley's Believe It or Not by John Graziano for May 24, 2012<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/uclick/ripleysbelieveitornot/~4/Bz-uN7ol0_0" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/uclick/ripleysbelieveitornot/~3/Bz-uN7ol0_0/24 http://www.gocomics.com//ripleysbelieveitornot/2012/05/24 http://www.gocomics.com//ripleysbelieveitornot/2012/05/23 Ripley's Believe It or Not by John Graziano for May 23, 2012<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/uclick/ripleysbelieveitornot/~4/mb4F7r3bxqw" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/uclick/ripleysbelieveitornot/~3/mb4F7r3bxqw/23 http://www.gocomics.com//ripleysbelieveitornot/2012/05/23
