Dave Whamond?s comic panel Reality Check turns 20 years old this month.

Dave notes:

“I just frame some of the silliness of everyday life in the comic and invite people to take a double-take — to look at life from another angle. Reality Check is more a state of mind than anything else. The characters could be people you know — maybe even a bit of yourself — but the names have been changed to protect the innocent.”

Dave is also a great illustrator whose work has been published in Sports Illustrated, Psychology Today, Owl, National Geographic World, Boston Globe and the Wall Street Journal and has illustrated over 25 children’s books. He’s also won four National Cartoonists Society division awards in the Magazine, Book, Newspaper, and Advertising illustration categories.

So watch for Reality Check Give-aways and promotions from GoComics this month. Dave will be the GoComics Live Twitter Q&A on April 17 (look for #AskDaveWhamond) and a week-long giveaway with autographed prints on the GoComics blog.

Congratulations, Dave for the milestone!
