Born in Belgium in 1904, Edgar P. Jacobs came to art and illustration after a short stint as an opera singer. He drew several pages of Flash Gordon during the war, then created his first comic, The U Ray, along the same narrative lines. Meeting the legendary Hergé was his big break; he helped create magazine Tintin, was colourist and background artist for seven of Tintin's adventures, before being offered to create his own series: Blake & Mortimer.
