I'm still working on a schoolbook for Quebec publisher Lidec. Once again, it's for the new program Ethic and Religious Culture. It's a bold new program replacing the old religion/morality course that was there before. The goal is to show an integrated view of various cultures and religions, alongside our everyday pop culture references. So, you get an unusual mix of things to illustrate: Indu

C'est "Les Hiss", une histoire se déroulant dans le monde de John Star, avec les grosses bêtes de la planète Uranus...Le livre a été dirigé par Michel Viau, mon ancien rédacteur en chef du temps de Safarir, et un bon copain depuis.

I just found the website of an artist that I've been trying to find for a long time: Mark s. Fisher. I read his stories in Heavy Metal magazine in the early to mid '80s. His stuff was surreal and new wavish, not what you'd expect to find in there. They where the kind that I could scrutinize for a long time, some sort of parallel new wave/retro/sci-fi world. I found no trace of him outside of HM

News here.Since Veena has an obvious visual link to Betty Page, I guess I should post this here too.It's a sad news. I "discovered" her in 1981 while reading Metal Hurlant. Her likeness was used for a character in Bois Willy, the serie that Denis Sire wrote and drew back then. That was way before Dave Stevens's Rocketeer. I guess Sire and Dionnet, his editor, knew of her appeal before most of the

Comme à tous les ans depuis les débuts d'Expozine en 2002, j'y aurai ma place, partagée cette fois-ci avec Richard Gagnon. Ça fait depuis les débuts que je vend Veena 1 à 4, puis d'autres trucs comme Johnny Dollar et CandyAppleBlack, et puis je me disais que cette fois j'allais passer mon tour pour une fois puisque j'avais rien de neuf à vendre....Et tout d'un coup, on a des copies de Typhon,

Last tuesday in canadian elections, the Conservatives (read as Reform Party of Canada) won a minority gouvernment. Their position is actually a bit stronger than before, but still, the first part of our bribe is met.So, we only need to have the Democrats win the White House on november 4th to have a few naughty drawings.If you're curious to see how I do cheesecake, the picture in this post is a

Read this here.Sirkowski is offering to draw his female characters naked frenching, if that somehow can help Obama to win in the US by bribing apathetic american into voting. Here is my contribution to his comments:"This is Theriault, the artist of Veena, here.If Obama win and the Conservative are a minority in Canada, I raise your bet: I will draw a trio with Veena, Blackie and Miss Dynamite !

Yep. I posted a corrected version of this page last week here but I forgot to mention it here. I corrected some things here and there. You might notice.It's not moving much on the webcomic page for a few reasons: I'm pretty busy with freelance illustration work : i've mostly been doing schoolbooks illustrations for the new "Ethic and religion" program that the Quebec Government is putting into

Y'a quelques semaines déjà est sorti le numéro spécial de " Spiderman Brand new day - Extra ! ". Il contiens 3 récits complets. L'un d'eux est une histoire dessinée par Pat Oliffe qui a un style entre Romita Jr et Ron Frenz. Du genre efficace, sans être vraiment original. Serge Lapointe a eu l'occasion d'en faire l'encrage des personnages et moi des décors.La même semaine est sorti le Cable

I heard that there was some possibility of a job with something related to Tripping The Rift, the cartoon show on Teletoon, here in Quebec. So, to show the client and also for fun, I did a pin-up of Six, just to show them what I could do with it.***Also, I'll be at the next Montreal Comic Con. It's April 27, 2008.

I've made some update and improvement to the webcomic page in the last month, trying to find a way to make it look a bit more lively.One of the thing that were there, then removed because the company went out of business, and then but back in was the chatterbox. You may have noticed it. I hope you like the possibility of commenting on the webcomic. But maybe people will "chatter" a bit more once

Yes, I'm getting into the facebook thing like everyone else ! I've had a Facebook page since last year, but mostly I use it with my friends and want to keep it personal. But I used the Group function to create a page about John Star. It can help gather readers from the Facebook network and keep them posted about new work being published on the webcomic.So if you are on Facebook, it's an

Yes, that's my current job. I'm working on a schoolbook where comics are used to help teenagers to understand hot topics like gangs, religious activities like shamanism or civil rights. In this case the topic is the dangers of cults or "religious" sects. The particular cult they are covering is the OTS, the Order of The Solar Temple, very active in Quebec and other french speaking countries

I have added a new "chatterbox" on the Veena webcomic page. The old one was gone because the Chatterbox company that made it, somehow went kaput. I haven't really ressearched the reasons and simply decided to remove it. It made the webpage look defective...Months have gone by.
