Comment
Ma petite madeleine de Proust, peut-être ma planche favorite de ce couple mythique du 9e Art! 101 av JC, Marius arrête net l'invasion de la tribu germanique des Cimbres par la victoire de Verceil, triomphe de la stratégie et de la discipline de l'armée romaine!

About Fred & Liliane Funcken
The Belgian artist couple Fred and Liliane Funcken are best known for creating various historical comics for the magazine Tintin in the 1950s and 1960s. While most were one-shot stories, they've also created actual series like 'Le Chevalier Blanc' (1953-1973), 'Harald le Viking' (1956-1967), 'Jack Diamond' (1959-1960), 'Lieutenant Burton' (1962-1967), 'Capitan' (1963-1971) and 'Doc Silver' (1967-1969). Their work is characterized by a realistic, precise style which gives their comics a classic touch. Both Fred as well as Liliane collaborated on stories and artwork to the point that their work is indistinguishable from one another.
