'Duk Denny'
André van Buuren, who writes his name 'andREVANbuuren', is known among art collectors and amateurs for his surrealist paintings. He is also an artist with a non-commercial and non-conventional drive, who enjoys drawing comics and cartoons. He publishes his comics on the StripSter comics portal, such as his adventure strip starring 'Duk Denny', a pilot loosely based on Victor Hubinon's 'Buck Danny'. Accompanied by his none too bright colleagues and a lost Indian tribe, Duk underwent his first adventure, called 'Vliegtuig naar de Maan', in a total of 24 pages.

The follow-up, 'De Wraak van Duk Denny', was published in the Stripschap magazine Stripnieuws in November 2012. The story is a tribute to a long line of artists Van Buuren admires, like Benito Jacovitti.
'Bluffende Buffel'.
Van Buuren has also contributed to P@per, the comic magazine published by Brabant Strip Magazine. These stories include 'Bluffende Buffel gaat op Jacht' and 'De Blues', a chapter from 'De Da Vinci Kade'. He has self-published both 'De Da Vince Kade' and 'Voeten op de Bank', illustrated stories about the darker sides of an artist's life.
