About the author
A Belgian cartoonist from the Golden Age of comics,
André Franquin was as important and influential throughout his career as Hergé, moulding and training dozens of artists through his long years at
Spirou magazine. In his 20 years at the helm of
Spirou and Fantasio, creator of their fantastical friend the Marsupilami, he was also the father of one of the most beloved anti-heroes of European comics, Gaston Lagaffe, as well as the delightfully dark and sarcastic
Idées Noires. As a sign of his popularity, he received the very first Grand Prix de la ville d'Angoulême in 1974.
