About the author:
Malik
(William Tai)
(b. 2/1/1948, Belgium)

Born in Paris, William Tai spent his first year in Indochina, and then emigrated to Belgium. He attended the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels, and made his comics debut in Tintin with the story 'Minuset' with a script by Jean-Marie Brouy�re. He joined Spirou in 1970, where he started out illustrating some 'Belles Histoires de l'Oncle Paul'. A year later, he created 'Archie Cash', a hard-boiled action character with the looks of Charles Bronson, together with scriptwriter Brouy�re.

While working on 'Archie Cash', Malik drew such stories as 'Blue Bird' (1977, text by Terence and Brouy�re), 'Chiwana' (1979, on his own texts) and the humorous 'Big Joe' (1978, text by Bom). The latter also appeared in Super-As. For the publishing house Archers, he drew 'Johnny Paraguay' with text by Terence from 1983 to 1985. In 1989, he began a comic adaptation of Bernard Clavel's 'Les Colonnes du Ciel', at �ditions Lefrancq.

Malik has focused on humorous comics since the late 1980s. He did the gag series 'Plombier' and 'La Vie Secr�te des Poubelles' with writer Dugomier, but he is best known for the series 'Cupidon', which he launched with Raoul Cauvin in 1988. In addition, Malik has worked as an illustrator for Schtroumpf and Le Soir. At the publishing house Topgame, he cooperated on 'Chansons Cochonnes' with Daniel Kox, Louis-Michel Carpentier and Jid�hem.
