Biography
Serge Le Tendre was born in 1946 in Vincennes, near Paris, in France. When he was 16, he started working as an assistant-accountant but two years later he started following the comics lessons at the university, delivered by artists and scholars like Jean-Claude Mézières, Jean Giraud, and Claude Moliterni. Fellow students included Régis Loisel and André Juillard. By 1974, he was writing short comics stories for artists like Annie Goetzinger and Dominique Hé, which appeared in Pilote and other magazines. In 1975 he created La Quête de l'oiseau du temps with Loisel, which first appeared in Imagine; it was restarted in Charlie Mensuel in 1982 and appeared in album format from the next year onwards. In 1984 he co-created the first two albums of Jérôme K. Jérôme Bloche for Pierre Makyo.[2]
