Meet Will Henry
Will Henry is the creator behind "Ordinary Bill" and "Wallace the Brave," both on GoComics. His professional career began with his strip "Room Mates," which was published in The Daily Campus during his time at the University of Connecticut. He draws his inspiration from everyday life, and in the age of the smartphone, he aims to recreate a world in which kids “still collect bugs, fly kites, and eat ice cream cones upside down.” He lives in Rhode Island with his wife, his cat, and his mistress, the sea.
Cast of Characters
Wallace Maclellan
Wallace is an honest 6-year-old. He embraces school, nature, comics, and pinball. He is a good friend, a kind person, and ever the optimist. He is the sort of kid who will find adventure anywhere.
Spud
Spud is Wallace’s best and most noble friend. Yes, he is peculiar and a whisper neurotic, but he stands by Wallace at all times. Without Wallace, Spud would spend his time in a dimly lit living room watching cat videos.
Amelia
Amelia is the new girl in Snug Harbor. She is intense and opinionated. Never intimidated, never complacent. If things get boring, Amelia will surely spice them up at anybody’s expense.
Rose
Rose is a smart, quirky bookworm and driven overachiever. She is fascinated by Wallace's adventurous fantasies, even while serving as the school's hall monitor.
Mrs. Maclellan
Mrs. Maclellan is Wallace’s mother. She is strong, independent, excitable, and fun. She enjoys surfing, gardening, and anything outdoors. She is also an avid comic book reader, although she’s the last to admit it.
Mr. Maclellan
Mr. Maclellan is Wallace’s father, also known as Dad. He is a weathered fisherman who enjoys teasing his children, like most fathers do. He can be fun but is usually a stubborn and sharp contrast to Mrs. Maclellan’s playfulness.
Mrs. Macintosh
Mrs. Macintosh is the second grade teacher at Moonstone Elementary. She is stern, smart, and compassionate. She understands the importance of her role but also the importance of childhood. She loves reggae music and summer vacation.
Sterling Maclellan
Sterling is Wallace’s younger, feral brother. He may have been raised by wolves or he just acts like it. He usually has no idea what’s going on around him but demands attention anyway.
