Fabien Vehlmann got into comics by flooding Spirou Magazine with proposed scripts until he was accepted. Since then he's proven his mettle with such hits as Green Manor, IAN, The Marquis of Anaon and a Spirou one-off, before becoming in 2009 the new official team for Dupuis' flagship series with Yoann. The latter is a French artist, with training from the Beaux-Arts school and the Centre for Comics Arts in Angoulême, and illustrated many series including Toto l'ornithorynque and Donjons Monsters.
