Nothing is ever simple with Gomer. Between his deplorable sense of timing, his absent-mindedness and his never-ending quest for new ways to avoid work, he causes a lot of fuses to blow those of his colleagues, De Mesmaeker and poor Prunelle, of course, but also the actual ones at the office. And that is not at all to Alistair Bacus's taste the accountant at Spirou Publishing
A Belgian cartoonist from the Golden Age of comics, AndrFranquinwas as important and influential throughout his career as Herg, moulding and training dozens of artists through his long years at Spiroumagazine. 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, GastonLagaffe, 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.
