Josep Tello Gonzalez is a Spanish artist who works for the Danish Disney production (Egmont). Born in Barcelona, Tello was the neighbor of the comics artist Boixcar. He began his career assisting his neighbor on his realistic comics. He went to London in 1966 to work for the Fleetway agency. There, he cooperated on a collection about World War II. He returned to Barcelona after only a year, but he still did work for Fleetway. With the help of Antonio Gil-Bao, Tello got in touch with Egmont publishers, and he became a versatile artist of Disney comics. Tello's favorite character was 'Mickey Mouse', but he has also drawn comics with other characters. In later years, Tello started his own agency. Being an agent now, he stopped drawing comics himself. However, he still kept doing an occasional cover or game page.
