Description

Action, Adventure, Graphic Novel, Humour In an effort to solve some of our planet's mysteries, my half sister and brilliant scientist Guadalupé and I travel the globe. Our adventures are thrilling and sometimes quite out of this world. We aren't your run-of-the-mill investigators. My name is Jimmy Tornado. I'm 15 years old and I'm a gorilla… DEAL WITH IT!

About the authors

Frédéric Antoine spent his childhood with his nose buried in comic books. Later he discovered role-playing games, giving him a chance to exercise his talents as a storyteller. A fan of film, travel and games, Frédéric continues to build his world, with his own brand of humour and pacing. After living in France, Africa and Martinique, Frédéric finally settled in Quebec almost 20 years ago.
