Julien Berjeaux
Julien Berjeaux, known by his pen name Jul, is a French comic book author and illustrator celebrated for his work on popular series such as 'Lucky Luke' and 'Silex and the City.' Recently, he made headlines due to the cancellation of his illustrated version of 'La Belle et la Bête' by the French Ministry of National Education, which deemed the content unsuitable for young readers due to its handling of complex themes like alcohol and social realities. Jul criticized the ministry's decision as a form of censorship, arguing that the reasoning provided was misleading and suggested a reluctance to represent contemporary social dynamics in children's literature.
