Lewis Trondheim

Laurent Chabosy (; born 11 December 1964), better known as Lewis Trondheim (), is a French cartoonist and one of the founders (in 1990) of the independent publisher L'Association. Both his silent comic ''La Mouche'' and Kaput and Zösky have been made into animated cartoons.

A figure in Franco-Belgian comics whose career began in the early 1990s, Trondheim is mostly known as the author of ''Les formidables aventures de Lapinot'' (translated to English as ''The Spiffy Adventures of McConey'') and the co-creator of comic fantasy series ''Dungeon'' with Joann Sfar, as well as his autobiographical series ''Les petits riens'' (translated to English as ''Little Nothings'').

As an artist, Trondheim is known for his "potato-shaped" characters and anthropomorphic animals, in a minimalistic style reminiscent of ''ligne claire''. His works often feature witty dialogue and characters in surreal or darkly humorous situations, where comedy may intertwine with tragedy. Working with several genres such as fantasy, the supernatural, experimental, autobiographical, or children's stories, Trondheim has contributed to than 150 books, both as an artist and a writer.
