Jan Wesseling was best known as an illustrator, but he has also created comics during his career. In 1956 he joined the team of talented Dutch comic artists at the Marten Toonder Studios, where he worked on 'Koning Hollewijn' and the series 'Marion'. After a short while, Thé Tjong-Khing joined him on the comic and they worked together until Wesseling discontinued his work on the strip. Wesseling then took on the series 'Athi' in Pep in 1966. In the 1980s, he completed the comic 'Joker' after Piet Wijn's stroke. He has also done a lot of illustrations and covers for several publications, including Margriet, Nieuwe Revu, Okki and the Donald Duck weekly.
