Hugh Raine Author

Hugh Raine has two heads. Yes, two! He has one for writing and another one for illustrating!

When he has his writing head on, he looks really sophisticated in a tweed jacket and roll-neck jumper, walking through the West Yorkshire countryside while thinking up humorous stories about rampaging yetis and frolicking flamingos!

When he has his illustrating head on, he sits hunched at his desk, surrounded by hot chilli plants and tiki cups, with crumbs all down his jumper and messy hair as he draws another fart cloud or makes a pop-up Disney card.

But when he puts those heads together, he creates very silly stories for brilliant comics like the Beano! Lots of these stories are now being collected into Betty & the Yeti comic collections, and he hopes you enjoy reading them as much as he loves making them! You can find out more by searching ‘Hugh Raine’ wherever you get your socials!

One day, Hugh hopes to have a third head that can take care of the finances…
