Frank
Frank was born in 1956 in Brussels. He studied the art of sculpture for three years at the Saint-Luc Institute in the Belgian capital, and published his first work in "Spirou" magazine in 1973, before starting in on an exotic adventure story called "Comme un animal en cage," with a script by Terence (Thierry Martens). He then created the character of "Broussaille" (Dupuis), who quickly became a comic book hero, starring in poetic and philosophical adventure stories such as "Les Baleines publiques" and "Les Sculpteurs de lumière." The series won a dozen awards, and in 1992 a whole set of school books was created for secondary education pupils in France featuring Broussaille, to liven up the natural sciences, literature, and arts classes. Between 1981 and 1986 Frank developed the character of "L'Elan" in mini-cartoons, and in 1989, teaming up with Franquin, Hausman, and Cabanes, he created and illustrated a book dedicated to cats, "Entre Chats" (Delcourt). In 1993 he began work on the "Matu" series for the Japanese publishing company Kodansha. Hired as a freelance artist by Warner Bros., he also developed characters for the animated film "Excalibur." Passionate about nature and painting, Frank composed the "Zoo" trilogy for the prestigious Aire Libre collection (Dupuis), together with scriptwriter Philippe Bonifay, which began in 1994 and was completed in 2007. His most recent work includes a fresh take on the classic "Marsupilami" series with the two-part graphic novel "The Beast," created alongside scriptwriter Zidrou (Dupuis/Europe Comics).
