Lo Hartog van Banda was one of The Netherlands' most prolific scriptwriters, both for comics and children's TV series. He was one of the closest co-workers of Marten Toonder, especially on the 'Tom Poes' comic. He has furthermore worked for most Dutch comic magazines of the 1960s and 1970s, and was also the first Dutch writer to add philosophical elements in his comics plots. Banda also regularly added occult and magical elements to his stories.
