Lorg

Laurent Gillain, better known by his pseudonym Lorg, (30 April 1956 – 25 November 2022) was a Belgian cartoonist.

Lorg was the son of cartoonist Jijé (Joseph Gillain). After the death of Victor Hubinon in 1979, Lorg and his father made the drawings for the comic series Redbeard. Lorg also made contributions to the last Jan Kordaat-album of Jijé. He also drew two reeditions of the comic book Christophe Colomb, about explorer Christopher Columbus. These were Christophe Colomb - Premier voyage (1992) and Christophe Colomb - La trahison (1993), for which he made the drawings and screenplay.

Gillain decided not to continue as a cartoonist and became a furniture designer for Eugène Sart in Montauban. He died on 25 November 2022 at the age of 66 years.
