Abstract
(en) In the Franco-Belgian comics, the stories in Africa are more unusual - helping the decolonization movement - during the years 1960-1970. The emergence of comics for adults, from 1980-1990, has changed this situation : released from the constraints of children's literature, comics dare then explore the world and consider, among other things, the greatness and misery of our history. It is in this context that Congo 40 was published in 1988, a "realistic" cartoon, by Eric Warnauts and Raives (Guy Servais is his real name), two young Belgian authors promised a long career, where Belgian colony still will make numerous incursions : What is their vision ? Small exegesis of a big corpus.
