description
Franquin was mainly known as the draftsman of funnies like Spirou and Fantasio or Gaston , but here he shows himself from a dark, macabre and black-humored side. In almost every comic, people who are often responsible for the situations described, die or end up in a hopeless situation. With an extreme use of black and white, he also criticizes the death penalty, environmental pollution and the arms industry.
Franquin provided the comics with various signatures that match the theme.
Others
For Amnesty International , Franquin created Les Combats de Gaston , a comic strip with Gaston, in the style of Black Thoughts.
