About the author After Henk Kuijpers finished his studies in sociology, he started working on a comic about a little film studio. He went to comic magazine Pep to show it, and was hired on sight. Soon the magazine published his first story, 'Het Misdaadmuseum', and asked him to do a sequel. He wasn't content with the first story's characters, so he invented Franka to take over the lead.
Franka is an elegant young woman with a passion for sports. She experiences many strange adventures due to her career as an archeologist. Introducing a woman protagonist in an adventure comic was a brave stroke, but Kuijpers became famous through her creation. His work has been published in album form and in various magazines, always with great success. The 'Franka' series has been translated in French and published in Spirou magazine. Henk Kuijpers is a realistic comic artist with a great sense of detail.
