Proud of my belgitude when I see, just by painting, literature and comic geniuses that are ours! Magritte, Simenon. And BD, I will mention THAT Hergé and Franquin. Hergé ,, it was a factory, the famous "Hergé Studios" with his army of negroes (Bob De Moor, Jacques Martin, EP Jacobs, Leloup ...) working under the eye of the Master (in both senses of the term ). A fast been fetched icon by his widow and Nick Rodwell. Reread the excellent "Hergé" by Pierre Assouline (Plon Ed.)! In response, the needy, the lonely, the perfectionist of neat book to infinity. Example, the black created small pen buttons. Hergé, Tintin is, either. BUT, André Franquin, is Gaston, Marsupilami, Zorglub, Christmas stories, "black ideas" the modernization of Spirou, Modeste and Pompon delicious and full of drawings. To parody Hugo (I will be Chateaubriand or nothing) I would say I exchange all Hergé against any Franquin. To parody Alain Peyrefitte, "When will awaken Franquin, Hergé tremble!" And Cyrano concludes: "Do not rise very high, certainly, but all alone!" Respect, Franquin! ...
