   The Angouleme Festival is the biggest “Bande Dessinee” festival in Europe, but it is not about “comic strip” as such, it is more about “Graphic Novels”, or “Bandes Dessinees” if you prefer.
   One of the perks of winning the Grand Prix is that I think Art will have to draw the poster for next year’s event…
   If you happen to be in France in January, it is well worth going to Angouleme to sample the atmosphere at one of these big festivals. I used to go there every year when I was living in France.
   The Cartoon Museum in Angouleme is also a top destination and is open all year round…
