About the Author
A former pilot in the French Navy, FrédéricZumbiehl has since turned to writing. He wrote several military adventure series, always insisting on hyper-realism, such as Team Rafale or Unité Félin. Frédéric Marniquet is both writer and artist, creator of several series including Rafale Leader. Jean-Michel Arroyo is a self-taught artist come to comics after 10 years of bicycle racing. After Le Paquebot des Sables, he met Frédéric Zumbiehl for a first series about air warfare, and the two stayed together for Buck Danny Classics.
