Blake and Mortimer - two heroes of our time

It is the most British of the Franco-Belgian series of the twentieth century. Where exclamations like "Hello!", "By Jove!", "Damned!" Or "Hell!" are found, there are also the two most British heroes of the classic Franco-Belgian cartoon.

A cartoon in French is full of ironies like this, with excellent creations of French or Belgian artists who bring into scene characters from other cultural and geographical latitudes.
