cartoonist
A cartoonist is a visual artist who specializes in both drawing and writing cartoons (individual images) or comics (sequential images). Cartoonists differ from comics writers or comic book illustrators in that they produce both the literary and ...
s most famous for their series of
Franco-Belgian comics albums featuring the character ''Monsieur Jean''.
Their collaboration is notable as they share every aspect of creating their stories, from plot through layouts,
pencils and
inks, to the extent that it is impossible to detect who is responsible for what. But in 2003, they decided to again work on their own, and have since published solo material like ''Hanté'' by Dupuy in 2005.
