Ruben Montoya is a Spanish artist, affiliated with Studio Comicup in Barcelona. He is the son of Carmen Pérez, who also works for this agency. He succeeded his mother as the artist of the title comic of Dutch girls' magazine Tina in early 2016. Montoya drew the strip from scripts by Jan Vriends until mid 2017, when Vriends took over complete production of the comic. However, he has continued to draw the characters for episodes in seasonal books and specials, from scripts by editor Bas Schuddeboom.
