Arthur le fantôme justicier

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Arthur the ghost of justice is a character in a comic book strip created by Jean Cézard (writer, penciler, colorist), first published in Vaillant #449 from December 20, 1953. The author drew the comic for the Pif Gadget magazine until he passed away in 1977.

The minimalism of the shapes was in strong contrast with the detailed and carefully consistent backgrounds and story. Arthur is one of the best, most beloved characters of Jean Cézard, to be fondly remembered and re-read by the many readers of Pif Gadget throughout the francophone world. This is the first sketched comic strip of the author, and after it, he gave up on his realist artwork and created a few more comic strips: les Rigolus et les Tristus, Surplouf le petit corsaire etc.

[edit] The return to the comic books

Between 1982 and 1988, Arthur the ghost had more adventures, springing from the pen of a young artist, Mircea Arapu, one of Cézard's fans.
