To work in the same building as a walking disaster like Gomer is no picnic. Between his 'fun' chemistry experiments and his attempts at amateur rocketry, no one is spared co-workers, secretaries, bosses, neighbours... We also discover that he's just as dangerous outside of work: day at the beach or in the country, weekend between friends or romantic outing there's nowhere safe from the undisputed master of the goof!
A Belgian cartoonist from the Golden Age of comics, Andr Franquin was as important and influential throughout his career as Herg, moulding and training dozens of artists through his long years at Spirou magazine. In his 20 years at the helm of Spirou and Fantasio, creator of their fantastical friend the Marsupilami, he was also the father of one of the most beloved anti-heroes of European comics, Gaston Lagaffe, as well as the delightfully dark and sarcastic Ides Noires. As a sign of his popularity, he received the very first Grand Prix de la ville d'Angoulme in 1974.
