He has written a number of books about the comics medium as well, including Le monde d'Hergé (1983), published in English as Tintin and the World of Hergé (1988), a biography of Hergé, "Hergé, son of Tintin", a study of comics pioneer Rodolphe Töpffer, and theoretical works such as Lire la bande dessinée (1998)
His encounter with Benoît Peeters in 1990 turned his work toward semi-autobiographical stories tinged with humour : Love Hotel (1993), Tôkyô est mon jardin (1997) and Demi-tour (1997).
