Fantax, by Bob Roc
Fantax - 'Dans le Grand Silence Blanc' (#27, April 1948).

Robert Rocca was born in 1930 in the area of Lyon in a family of Italian refugees. At age 14, he decided to become a comic artist, using the pen name Bob Roc. After World War II, he worked as an artist for comic books like 'Fantax', 'Targa', 'Marco Polo', and 'Brick le Corsaire', published by Editions du Siècle and Pierre Mouchot. He later left the field and took on several odd jobs, such as truck driver, mover and typewriter repairer. He eventually settled in Saint Mathieu de Tréviers and began a career as an international recognized sculptor. Robert Rocca should not be confused with the French singer of the same name (1912-1994).
