Swiss comic artist Gérald Poussin started his career making comics in the underground magazines Charlie Hebdo, Hara Kiri, Métal Hurlant and L'Écho des Savanes. Much of his work for these magazines has been published in albums such as 'Papiers Gras', 'Les Aventures de Buddy et Flappo' and 'Tendance Débile'. He uses a simple, almost childish style, of which he says himself in the preface of 'Buddy et Flappo': "Daring to talk about my drawings is insulting all the great artists around me." Today he lives in Carouge, near Geneva. He draws cartoons, he writes plays and film scripts, designs clothes, furniture, jewelry, even carpets, as well as interiors.
