Published stories: Graphic Novels

1981: With the support of the Universite du Quebec a Montreal Telematique Department, I led a team of artists into producing the first Canadian comics on the Macintosh (Mac 512s).

We exhibited our work at the first Cite du Futur exhibit.

Same year, the first computer-generated comic book - Shatter- was produced in the USA. We had good company.
