Fabrizio Borrini is a comic artist and painter from Liège, who enrolled at the Academy of Fine Arts at the age of 15. He published his earliest comics efforts in the 1980s, starting a mini-book starring the character 'Ticky' in Spirou magazine (1981). It was followed by two albums of the sci-fi comic 'Suplex et Caltex' at Éditions Magic Strip in 1984 and 1986. These books were made with influences of the Clear Line revival of the 1980s, but also foreshadowed the surreal and absurd drawing style of his later comics.
