Jean-Marc Reiser

Jean-Marc Reiser started his comic career in 1959, with publications in La Gazette de Nectar, using the pseudonym J.M. Rousillon. The same year, he worked for Blagues, using the name Jiem. In 1960, he met Cavanna and Fred, and together they founded 'Hara Kiri' magazine. Reiser's biting humor proved perfect for this underground magazine. Reiser worked at various magazines (Métal Hurlant, Echo des Savannes, Pilote and Charlie Hebdomaire) throughout his career.

Several albums have been published with his work, like 'Ils Sont Moches', 'La Famille Oboulot aux Vacances', 'Les Oreilles Rouges', 'La Vie au Grand Air' and 'Vive les Femmes'. He died in 1983, but his work, such as 'Les Sales Blagues' in L'Écho des Savanes, was continued by Vuillemin, and still attracts a great number of fans.
