Dany, pseudonym for Daniel Henrotin (born 28 January 1943) is a Belgian comic book artist, best known for ''Olivier Rameau'' and ''Ça vous intéresse?''. ==Biography== Daniel Henrotin was born in Marche-en-Famenne in 1943.〔De Weyer, Geert (2005). "Dany". In België gestript, pp. 101-102. Tielt: Lannoo.〕 After studying at the Art School of Liège, he started working as a comics artist in 1966, as an assistant for Mitteï, an artist working for ''Tintin'' magazine. Dany worked there for a year and then had to leave in order to do his military service.〔 Afterwards, he started collaborating directly on ''Tintin'' magazine with illustrations and short stories, and worked in the studio of Greg, the editor-in-chief of the magazine. Greg wrote a poetic story about ''Olivier Rameau'' and the people of Dreamland, and it marked the debut of Dany's first successful and longest running series. Dreamland is very similar to the worlds of L. Frank Baum's ''Oz'' and Lewis Carroll's ''Alice'' and Dany drew an adaptation of ''Alice'' shortly after starting the ''Olivier Rameau'' series. Much of Dany's early work was drawn in a comical style, but in the late 1970s he produced more realistic drawings while in collaboration with writer Jean Van Hamme. This included ''Histoire sans héros'' ("Story Without a Hero") in 1977, which was a one-shot adventure story about the survivors of a plane crash trying to find a way out of a dense South American jungle. It obtained critical success and reached a wide audience.〔 Dany and Van Hamme also came up with a series called ''Arlequin'', the adventures of a freelance secret agent and master of disguise made in the spirit of ''The Persuaders!'' which was very popular in continental Europe.〔''Dictionnaire mondial de la Bd'' (''World Dictionary of Comics'') by Patrick Gaumer and Claude Moliterni, ISBN 2-03-750019-X, ISBN 978-2-03-750019-7〕 Meanwhile Greg and Dany would collaborate on some other short-lived series, and in the 1990s Greg wrote the final two stories of ''Bernard Prince'' for Dany after Hermann had quit the series.〔 (a character based on Prince had featured in one of the ''Arlequin'' stories). But his main commercial success came in 1990 when he started a series of erotic joke comics with ''Ça vous intéresse?''. The series was an instant success, and many artists and writers have collaborated on the books, magazines, and multimedia that have followed since.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dany (comics)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
