Résumé

Auteur

  • Fabien Nury (auteur)

    Born in 1976, Fabien Nury began his career by co-writing with Xavier Dorison the script of "W.E.S.T" (Dargaud; "Spooks," Cinebook), a hit series illustrated by Christian Rossi. Nury independently wrote "Je suis légion" (Humanoïdes Associés), a trilogy illustrated by the American John Cassaday, and in 2007 he also started working on "Le maître de Benson Gate" (Dargaud) with Renaud Garreta. From 2007 to 2012, Nury wrote the script for the six volumes of "Il était une fois en France" (Glénat), a historical series illustrated by Sylvain Vallée that received both critical and public acclaim (over 850,000 copies sold). Since then Fabien Nury has been gaining success in various genres, with the historical dark comedy "The Death of Stalin" (Dargaud; Titan Comics in English), illustrated by Thierry Robin; the thriller "Steve Rowland," volume 5 of the "XIII Mystery" series (Dargaud, illustrations by Richard Guérineau); and the literary adaptation "Atar Gull" (Dargaud, Europe Comics in English), illustrated by Brüno. In 2013, Nury and Brüno went on to collaborate on the noir graphic novel "Tyler Cross" (Dargaud, Titan Comics in English). Alongside Thierry Robin, Nury also created the two-part series "Death to the Tsar" (Dargaud, Titan Comics in English), and in 2014, with Eric Henninot, he published "A Son of the Sun" (Dargaud, Europe Comics), an adventure album adapted from two novels by Jack London. More recently, in 2017, alongside artist Sylvain Vallée, Nury struck again with the hard-hitting historical fiction series "Katanga" (Dargaud, Europe Comics in English), which takes place in 1960 in the post-colonial Congo.
  • Matthieu Bonhomme (Illustré par)

    Matthieu Bonhomme was born in Paris on June 17th, 1973. He was soon spending much of his free time drawing and, in his final years at school, he studied for a vocational qualification in art and design, gained in 1992. His encounter with Christian Rossi, and then Serge Le Tendre and Jean-Claude Mézières, was decisive. Matthieu spent the next five years learning from them, receiving valuable advice about the profession in all its many forms. He put this advice into practice when he embarked on various pieces of work (cartoons and illustrations) for several magazines such as Spirou, Je Bouquine, Grain de soleil, Maximum, D-Lire, Image Doc, and others. Working with Jean-Michel Darlot, he then produced a 46-page work which was published in Okapi between January and April 2000, some smaller pieces of illustration work for the publisher Nathan, plus a book, "Contes et récits de la conquête de l'ouest," in 2000, with author Christophe Lambert. His next decisive encounter, at the Atelier des Vosges, was with Fabien Vehlmann, who wrote for him "The Marquis of Anaon" (Dargaud/Cinebook 2002). In 2002, he also started the adventure series "Esteban" (Dargaud/Europe Comics 2015). More recently, his spin-off of the classic series "Lucky Luke," "The Man Who Shot Lucky Luke," proved to be a smashing success with critics and readers alike (Lucky Comics 2016, Europe Comics in English 2016). And in 2018, alongside Fabien Nury, he began the historical fiction series "Charlotte Impératrice" (Dargaud; "Empress Charlotte," Europe Comics).
