Jean-Davide Morvan started out as a comics artist before realising his masterful talent for storytelling. Born in France, he studied art at the Instiut St Luc in Brussels. In 2004, he became the writer of classic Franco-Belgian comic, Spirou & Fantasio. Over the years he has produced over 230 comics, winning multiple awards including the Youth Award in 2006 at Angouleme International Comics Festival, and Best Story in 2008 at Prix Saint-Michel. Abbas is a world renowned photographer, originally from Iran. He dedicated a lot of his work to political and social coverage of developing southern nations, and from 1970 onwards, many of his works appeared in magazines across the world. After capturing the Iranian revolution, he self-exiled for 17 years before returning. One of his most controversial subjects has been religion, extensively documenting different faiths, from Islam to Buddhism, with accompanying essays. He has produced many books of his photographic works and has held exhibitions all over the globe. In 1981 he joined Magnum Photography Agency and was a governing member until he died in 2018. Rafael Ortiz is an Argentinian cartoonist whose work includes Dan the Unharmable (Panini Comics), God is Dead (Avatar Press).

In 2018, Rafael worked with screenwriter Frédéric Richaud on l'Envers des Nuages (Glénat), a fictitious account of the red cross involved in African conflicts. In 2019, he began working with The Tribe, on graphic novels such as The Division (Les Deux Royaumes).
