Dusan Reljic (Dušan Reljić) was born in Novi Sad, Serbia. He studied philosophy and sociology before he devoted himself to cartoons and comics. By the 1980s he established himself as one of the leading Yugoslav comic authors, publishing his work in many newspapers and magazines from the former Yugoslavian countries.
Reljic eventually settled in Athens, Greece, where he gained publicity with political caricatures and a series of covers for Kiriakatiki Eleftherotypia. He also created 'Balco from Neworderland', a comic strip for Eleftherotypia's daily paper. Other comics include 'The Marbles' and an adaptation of Giovanni Bocaccio's 'The Decameron'.
Reljic has drawn for licensed properties like Disney, Hanna-Barbera's 'Tom & Jerry’, Morris' 'Lucky Luke', Friz Freleng's 'Pink Panther' and Walter Lantz’s 'Woody Woodpecker'. He has illustrated for Mamouth Comics, Metro, Status, Playboy, Parapente, Penthouse, Modern Times and Epsilon. Later in his career, he drew political cartoons for the Kosmos Tou Ependitis.
