Pirate Family - Volume 2 - The Impostor

Born in 1979, Aude Picault earned a degree in visual communication at Les Arts déco, the renowned art and design school in Paris. Her first step toward comics came in 2004, with the publication of "MoiJe, " followed by a quick succession of other projects: "Papa" (L'Association, 2006), "Les mélo maniaks" (Glénat, 2008), "Transat" (Delcourt, 2009), and "Comtesse" (Les Requins marteaux, 2010), before teaming up with Fabrice Parme for the comic book adaptation of the cartoon "Famille pirate" (Dargaud, 2012; "Pirate Family, " Europe Comics).
She continued her collaboration with Dargaud in the years to come with "Parenthèse patagone" (2015), recounting her sailing trip around Patagonia, "Idéal Standard" (2017; "Limited Edition, " Europe Comics, 2018), an acclaimed graphic novel relating the daily life of a thirty-something woman, taking the reader beyond the usual love-life clichés, and "Amalia" (2022; Europe Comcis in English), a graphic novel about an over-worked mother faced with burnout and a world in ecological crisis. Fabrice Parme was born in 1966 in Nancy, France.
He first studied the applied arts for three years at Duperré in Paris before moving on to Angoulême, where he focused on comics. His first drawings were published in "Pilote & Charlie" in 1988, a year in which he also began working on cartoons. Over the years his projects and collaborations grew in number, leading up to the creation of the "Poisson Pilote" collection at Dargaud in 1999. It was under this label that he published the two-part adventure story "Venezia, " alongside scriptwriter Lewis Trondheim (Dargaud; Europe Comics in English).
Several years later, in 2012, Parme published the first volume of "Famille Pirate" alongside writer Aude Picault (Dargaud; "Pirate Family, " Europe Comics), an adaptation of a cartoon he helped to create in the late 1990s. Volume two of the series followed in 2014. His recent work also includes the children's series "Astrid Bromure" (Rue de Sèvres).
