In 1989, he started the juvenile 'Nathalie' series in Tintin Reporter at Casterman publishers. A year later, he "gave birth" to a second heroine, 'Mademoiselle Louise', in cooperation with André Geerts. While still working on 'Nathalie', Salma began the humorous 'Surimi' series for a more adult public. In addition, he took on 'Ice Fred' in the periodical P'tit Loup.
