After his studies in biology, Bob Weber Jr. followed in the footsteps of his father, Bob Weber Sr., and started illustrating. He started out in 1978 assisting his father on the 'Moose and Molly' daily comic. In the 1980s, he became a staff artist at King Features Syndicate, where he started the series 'Comics for Kids'. At the same time, his cartoons appeared in Good Housekeeping, Ladies' Home Journal and Reader's Digest. In 1987, he started 'Slylock Fox', also featuring 'Bonnie and BooBoo', at King Features, which soon became so popular, that he started to work full-time on this comic at his home studio.
