F'murr
F'murr (born March 31, 1946 in Paris as Richard Peyzaret ; † April 10, 2018 ) was a French cartoonist .
He started in 1971 with the first comics for the Pilote magazine and published there from 1973 the first pages of his absurdly humorous series Le Génie des Alpages (Eng: The genius on the alp ), which made 14 albums in France. In this comic, a shepherd, his dog and many secondary characters such as sheep, lions and tourists engage in bizarre philosophical verbal battles.
