  • Biography

    Jije lived from 1914 to 1980. In 1975, Joseph Gillain aka Jijé celebrated his 40-year career in comics at the Chiroux cultural center in Liège. Having lived in the United States, Jijé has a vision of the Amerindians much more subtle than that conveyed by most Westerns of that time: he contributes, with the Charlier Blueberry and Giraud, to reform the most ordinary clichés. Jije passed away in 1980.
