Benoît Bourget

Benoît Bourget developed a keen interest in comics at an early age, particularly manga, which he discovered through titles such as Yu-gi-oh, Dragon Ball, and Bleach. He experienced a visual shock through Katsuhiro Otomo's Domû, definitively marking his orientation toward manga. He left school after the ninth grade and spent several years exploring various drawing styles. After earning a scientific baccalaureate, the desire to make comics continued to lure him, despite being out of reach. He studied philosophy for a year, then found work in a hospital setting, enrolling in nursing training before being forced to Reunion Island, where he was able to devote himself to some personal projects while serving as a nursing assistant. In 2017, he self-published his first children's comic and has since continued to make drawing his focus.
