Extortion

Four pages published in the July issue of "L'echo des Savanes".
Note that the small pictograms i'm generally using in the speech balloons had been replaced by words.
The magazine chief editor feared that the pictograms were way too intricate and confusing for the vast majority of the readers, so he suggested replacing them by single words.
That's a brilliant idea for sure, and i think i will be working in that direction in the near future...

Nevertheless, you can try reading the unaltered version of that complicated, undecipherable little story below.
It was directly inspired by real facts regarding security issues in Iraq.

Finished Product

Zérocratie

Commission for the CD artwork from the band Zérocratie, the challenge was to do something with a different style than the punk stuff i'm used to deal with.

Of course, this drawing can reminisce the cover of that Philip Jose Farmer book i've read during my teenage years...

Charvieux Chavagneux

We were greeted by this very scary graffiti while entering the charming town of Charvieux Chavagneux.


Some books were signed...

NLB 88 might be the name of the neo-nazi biker gang terrorizing the streets of Charvieux, they shall not pass...

Mome vol.18

cover by Nate Neal.



Finally, i got some of my work published in the U.S., i'm really happy about this, hope it will not be the last time btw...
More info and a video preview about the Mome project here.

From the Fantagraphics website:
"Every "period" in modern comics history has had its anthology that tapped into the zeitgeist and foreshadowed a new "generation" of cartoonists (Zap in the '60s; Arcade in the '70s; RAW and Weirdo in the '80s, etc.). For the new millennium, there is Mome. This quarterly book will spotlight a regular cast of a dozen of today's most exciting cartoonists. Mome features the same collective of artists every issue, allowing the artists and audience to grow together and build an ongoing identity that is highly unusual for the world of contemporary comics."

"If the world of alt-comics feels appealing but intimidatingly vast (what doesn’t these days), Mome is the perfect place to start. ... An anthology is only as good as the sensibilities of those who compile it, of course, so it’s worth noting that a subscription of Mome equals four issues per year of work culled from the depths by an outfit that not only has keen vision in such matters, but also a stake in finding the very best. What’s not to trust?"
