I’ve been dying to tell the world for weeks, but now it’s official, YES, ONE-HIT WONDER is going to be published by Image Comics everywhere in the world where comic books are sold. This has been a long journey for the book. And when it reaches the American/international market this February, expect some surprises. ItContinueContinue reading “ONE HIT WONDER: THE UNTOLD STORY”

Some people like to interpret dreams. Well, let’s say that the one I had last night is typical of my natural “control freak” tendancy and clearly a message I should let go… So what was it exactly? I dreamt I was in my old office, in Paris, and arriving on the scene, I discover copiesContinueContinue reading “I had a dream (and it was more of a nightmare)”

And that day was last monday. For those understanding French, it’ll be an easy read, for the others, let me offer you the elevator pitch: “it’s basically the story of how the Chambery comic book festival in France wants to draw international talents to their town next year to be featured as guests and wouldContinueContinue reading “The day I was featured in a French newspaper”

As I said earlier, I attended the New York Comic Con this year. It was a crazy cool edition. Friday night, second day of the con, I was already washed out. Usually, when I’m in New York, I stay with one of my relatives in Long Island. But this time, I stayed with one ofContinueContinue reading “My NYCC Anecdotes part 2”

Yes, I was in New York for the Comic Con this October and, like many creators, stuff happened there. My first story involves Kabuki creator David Mack. David and I go way back. In 2001, I was running Comic Box magazine at the time, and we thought it was a good idea to bring himContinueContinue reading “My NYCC anecdotes part I”

I usually don’t like French superheroes. I always believed that superheroes were an American thing and that every attempt to mimic our english speaking cousins was destined to fail creatively. But yesterday, I had an epiphany. Well, not really but something changed. I had lunch with my old friend Thierry Mornet and he offered meContinueContinue reading “French superheroes can rock, you know?”

When it comes to my personal life, I may be very protective of some aspects, but I never forget to talk about my father, who passed away when I was 11 at the tender age of 34. You don’t have to be a shrink or Einstein to understand how it can impact someone’s life. ItContinueContinue reading “Why I’m an orphan for the second time in my life”

Okay. I know some of you got the reference, but I won’t talk about R.Kelly’s first album on my blog. No, I will talk about the day I was literally born in professional comics. And it all began on July 10th, 1998 with the publication of COMIC BOX#1.This coming week, COMIC BOX#84, the magazine’s 15thContinueContinue reading “Born into the 90s”

I saw 2Guns, the movie, yesterday. And I have to say I loved it. It’s always exciting to see a comic book that is NOT Marvel or DC turned into a movie. Especially when this movie is good (I think we had our share of bad comic book movies, don’t you think?). I remember theContinueContinue reading “#2Guns… Lots of ammo!”

It would probably be sexist to say there are differences between male artists and female artists. But there are. I’ve been very lucky to work with some incredible artists, male or female. And don’t get me wrong, in the end, only the quality of the final comic book counts. But I find really interesting toContinueContinue reading “Why I like working with female artists”
