Gomer is absolutely peerless when it comes to disrupting life at Spirou Magazine, much to his boss Prunelle's and long-suffering Mr De Mesmaeker's chagrin. But don't you go underestimating him! The truth is that his laziness, his talent for invention and even his love of animals not to mention his antiquated lemon of a car are perfectly capable of spreading chaos anywhere, in any season. You can't even imagine what he can do when it snows!
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.
