About The Author

Matz

Matz’s hit series, The Killer, with artist Luc Jacamon, made its comic book debut in 1998. It became a bestseller that found its way onto the shelves of bookstores in many countries, including the US, where it was published by Archaia. The series was optioned by Paramount for a movie that has drawn the interest of director David Fincher. Matz has also created a new line of comic books, Rivages/Casterman/Noir, which are adaptations of noir novels. For the last 15 years, Matz has worked in the video-game industry as an employee at Ubisoft. He is now in charge of the writing department and has been involved with games such as Splinter Cell, Ghost Recon, Rainbow Six, Prince of Persia, and the Assassin’s Creed series.

Luc Jacamon made his debut in the comics field in 1986, focusing on illustration work in the following years. In October 1998, he published his first album with Casterman publishers, Long Feu, the first in the series Le Tueur (The Killer), which he created with scriptwriter Matz. This critically acclaimed series deals with the life and psychology of a hitman. After a cycle of five albums, Jacamon and Matz concluded their series in 2003 and launched the futuristic saga Cyclopes.
