Under the pseudonym André Joy, André Gaudelette drew the 'P'tit Joc' series for Vaillant magazine. This series about a little orphan boy was written by Jean Ollivier and appeared in Vaillant from 1952 to 1957. He then briefly drew 'Jojo des Rues' for the magazine. Joy left Vaillant in 1957 and drew the title comic of Line magazine for a while under his own name. He started working for Fleurus publishers in 1961. There, he created 'Frank et Siméon' for Coeurs Vaillants/J2 Jeunes and 'Les Enquêtes de Nicole' for Ames Vaillantes/J2 Magazine. Later on, he illustrated 'Judy' in Djinn and Triolo magazines. André Gaudelette is the father of comics artist Michel Gaudelette.
