An interview with Guernsey's top comic book writer

One of Guernsey's top comic book writers tells islanders what it takes to become a top-selling author in the trade.

James Roberts is best known for writing the comic book series, Transformers, which was read and sold across the world.

James told ITV News he was always a fan of comics as a child but it was never his plan to break into the industry.

He has been writing comics for many years but as well as being a top-selling comic book writer he also works a day job and runs a local charity.

• WATCH: Our Reporter, Rob Moore, met up with James at his local coffee shop in Guernsey to find out more about the weird and wonderful world of comic books.
