Ben toolbox Reeves was a Senior Editor at Game Informer. He was best known for his unusual style of comedy, dubbed "Street Comedy." This comedy was used in several Replays, until he created a character based upon stereotypical 1940s detectives: Ben Reeves, Bizzare Detective. Often changing the subject out of nowhere, and making everyone laugh with his jokes, Ben Reeves is a fan favorite. When not cracking jokes or solving mysteries, he is an avid Benventor and pick-up line enthusiast. He left in 2020 for a different job, although still writes occasionally for Gameinformer Online.
