A riff on an old joke, but a relatively safe place to start, I guess. Things will only get weirder.

Artist Herr Seele ("Mister Soul," did I get that right?) was born in 1959 as Peter van Heirseele in Torhout, West-Flanders. His father was an office clerk and his mother a professional painter, who stimulated her son's artistic interests. His grandmother Valerie Haesaert was also an artist, and once won a national award for amateur painting. As a child, van Heirseele already drew complete comic book stories. --Lambiek

Writer Kamagurka, real name Luc Zeebroek, was born in 1956 in Nieuwpoort, a town near the Belgian coast. He came into the world with a bad Achilles tendon, which left him with crooked feet. The boy was bullied and suffered tremendous pain until an operation solved the problem. In the hospital, a young patient in the bed next to him died. All these traumatic experiences gave Zeebroek a combative attitude. In his opinion, life is so absurd, tragic and meaningless that it's best to not take things too seriously. Growing up, he therefore wanted to turn everything into a joke, even severe tragedies.

I like it. Reminds me of Joan Cornellas comics lol.
You read my mind!
I had published a roundup of Cornella's stuff on Reddit some time back, sourced on Imgur, but Imgur wound up deleting it because it was 'too weird / offensive,' I presume.
I was just thinking about trying again over here, after some more 'normal' posts.
