In Belgium, the comics is considered an art in itself.
Every year many albums with comics appear which enjoy great success among the public.
Belgian artists are pioneers in this field and have played an important role in the development of this art in Europe.
For example, the famous character Tintin was created by a Belgian author.
Nowadays comic includes many different styles - from the humour, satiric or family cartoon, to works with remarkable literary or artistic quality.
In Brussels, there is a large museum dedicated to comics, where you can discover the history of this art, the processes of its production, as well as different types of comics.
