Happy 81st birthday today to Jean Van Hamme, the great creator of Thorgal (stand to one side Conan and gaze upon a real man), Largo Winch and the mind-blowing XIII

What is it with Belgians and their ability to create successful world-class comic book heroes?

I must admit - I've never read XIII or Largo Winch. I've read a bunch of Thorgal though, because these were available at my junior high school, and can be found in nearly every library in France. And that's good stuff. Loved the take on Norse mythology.
