- Sergio Aragonés was born on September 6, 1937 in Castellon, Spain. He is an actor, known for George of the Jungle (1997), Groo the Wanderer and Norman... Is That You? (1976).
- Enjoys inserting himself into crowds of strangers when they are taking pictures of their group. His friends estimate that he is in thousands of photo albums all over the world.
- While on a staff vacation in Italy, he masqueraded as a waiter in a restaurant. MAD publisher William Gaines was halfway through giving his order when he realized that the waiter was Aragones.
- Writes and draws a "sword and sorcery" comic book parody "Groo The Wanderer" with Mark Evanier.
- Best known for his work as a cartoonist in MAD Magazine, specifically his tiny gag panels that are often inserted in the margins of the magazine's pages.
- Proposed doing the margin cartoons to MAD publisher William Gaines who agreed to print them as long as Aragones could produce good material. Thirty years later, he's still doing them.
- I keep very weird hours. I never know when I'm going to get an idea.
- Once you've established where you are, you go to the character and elaborate on expressions and action.
