Author Information

Journalist and comics specialist, Xavier Fournier is editor-in-chief of the magazine Comic Box, lecturer and author of works about the history of comic books. Far from limiting himself to a catalogue of characters, he is interested in the sometimes vibrant testimonies about these stories told through documentaries or through fantastic but always incredible Proustian madeleines.
