Born in 1976, Fabien Nury began his career by co-writing with Xavier Dorison the script of "W.E.S.T" (Dargaud; "Spooks," Cinebook), a hit series illustrated by Christian Rossi. Nury independently wrote "Je suis légion" (Humanoïdes Associés), a trilogy illustrated by the American John Cassaday, and in 2007 he also started working on "Le maître de Benson Gate" (Dargaud) with Renaud Garreta. From 2007 to 2012, Nury wrote the script for the six volumes of "Il était une fois en France" (Glénat), a historical series illustrated by Sylvain Vallée that received both critical and public acclaim (over 850,000 copies sold). Since then Fabien Nury has been gaining success in various genres, with the historical dark comedy "The Death of Stalin" (Dargaud; Titan Comics in English), illustrated by Thierry Robin; the thriller "Steve Rowland," volume 5 of the "XIII Mystery" series (Dargaud, illustrations by Richard Guérineau); and the literary adaptation "Atar Gull" (Dargaud, Europe Comics in English), illustrated by Brüno. In 2013, Nury and Brüno went on to collaborate on the noir graphic novel "Tyler Cross" (Dargaud, Titan Comics in English). Alongside Thierry Robin, Nury also created the two-part series "Death to the Tsar" (Dargaud, Titan Comics in English), and in 2014, with Eric Henninot, he published "A Son of the Sun" (Dargaud, Europe Comics), an adventure album adapted from two novels by Jack London. More recently, in 2017, alongside artist Sylvain Vallée, Nury struck again with the hard-hitting historical fiction series "Katanga" (Dargaud, Europe Comics in English), which takes place in 1960 in the post-colonial Congo.
