Alexandre Dumas could have been a character from one of his novels. A true romantic, he was the son of Napoleon's famous General Dumas, a prolific writer of over 277 volumes, a revolutionary and a man of tremendous appetites. He was born on July 24, 1802 and died penniless but happy on December 5, 1870, a refugee from his own excesses. As a child, Ruben loved two things: drawing and fighting with wooden swords. Fortunately, he chose to work on paper. He took his first drawing lessons in the small village where he lived with his parents before joining the School of Design at Joso Barcelona. During this period he illustrated short stories for various Spanish magazines, one of which was noticed by Jean David Morvan. Morvan contacted Ruben which led to their collaboration on "Jolly Ringworm" and "The Three Musketeers. "
