Hermann Huppen (born 17 July 1938) is a Belgian comic book artist. He is better known under his pen-name Hermann. He is most famous for his post-apocalyptic comic ''Jeremiah'' which was made into a television series. ==Biography== Hermann was born in 1938 in Bévercé (now a part of Malmedy) in Liège Province.〔De Weyer, Geert (2005). "Hermann". In België gestript, pp. 124-125. Tielt: Lannoo.〕 After studying to become a furniture maker and working as interior architect, Hermann made his debut as comic book artist in 1964 in the Franco-Belgian comics magazine ''Spirou'' with a four page story. Greg noticed his talent and offered him to work for his studio. In 1966, he began illustrating the ''Bernard Prince'' series written by Greg, published in ''Tintin'' magazine. In 1969, also in collaboration with Greg, he began the western series ''Comanche''. This appeared at the same time as other western series such as ''Blueberry''. Hermann began writing his own stories in 1977, starting the post-apocalyptic ''Jeremiah'' series, which is still produced today. In the same period, he also made three albums of ''Nick'', inspired by ''Little Nemo in Slumberland'', for ''Spirou''.〔 In 1983 he began a new series, ''Les Tours de Bois-Maury'', which is set in the Middle Ages and is less focused on action than his other works. Hermann has also created many non-series graphic novels sometimes together with his son Yves H. One of them, ''Lune de Guerre'', with a story by Jean Van Hamme, was later filmed as ''The Wedding Party'' by Dominique Deruddere. Hermann is characterized by a realistic style and stories that are both somber and angry, with a sense of disillusion with regards to the human character in general, and current society more specifically.〔 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「Hermann Huppen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
