Bruno Gazzotti

Bruno Gazzotti is a Belgian comic book artist born on September 16, 1970.

He has drawn several popular comic book series, such as Soda and Seuls.

His Italian grandfather had been a miner, and his father lived in Belgium from a very early age. Both his parents were sport instructors, and comic enthusiasts. As a child, Gazzotti was himself very interested in Franco-Belgian comics such as Tintin, and, in 1988, he was hired by Spirou's editor in chief Patrick Pinchart , who, after being shown his portfolio, commissioned a few illustrations. He had. Previously studied at Liege's Institut Saint Luc.

Shortly after, he drew Le petit Spirou ( from the 20th strip onwards ), with writers Janry and Tome. It was with the latter he then became the artist for a Semi-realistic series about a New York policeman, Soda, in 1989. Both series became very popular, and new comics are still being issued today.

Biscotti continued drawing Soda until 2005, when, after " Apocalypse Code", the series' 12th comic. This was despite him saying, shortly after the comic's release, " I should normally continue the series, as we have found an agreement to continue that satisfies everyone.". The comic was later continued by Tome and Dan Verlinden.

In January 2006, he and writer Fabien Vehlmann released the first episode of a new saga, Seuls, about a group of teenagers who try surviving in a world where adults have disappeared. It was very successfully both commercially and critically. Gazzotti drew all 9 books, with 20 expected to be released in total.
