Didier Cassegrain was working in Olivier Vatine and Fred Blanchard's animation studio when they plucked him out to work with them on comics.
Tao Bang was his earliest comics work. Tome 1 was published in 1999, Tome 2 in 2005, and is now collected in English.
Layouts by Olivier Vatine, vehicles and buildings designed by Fred Blanchard, art and color by Didier Cassegrain. The first half was colored by hand, the second half by computer.
From the publisher:
Ellora's business has been in freefall since the dragon sheikh Ad Arphax opened a competing brothel nearby. So she sets out with ruffian Norden to find the Isle of Mermaids, whose siren song should bring in the customers and put her back on top. But the journey is wrought with fantastic dangers, not the least of which is the Amazon pirate Tao Bang – an old acquaintance of Norden's – now in the employ of Ad Arphax…
An exhilarating, swashbuckling fantasy adventure packed with scoundrels and anti-heroes by authors Daniel Pecqueur and Olivier Vatine, illustrated by fan-favorite artist Didier Cassegrain.
