Andrew Benteau

Andrew is the co-founder and chief editor at Black Panel Press. After living in France in 2014, he developed a deep appreciation for the bande dessinée style of comics and its wide variation of stories, as opposed to their North American counterparts which are still dominated by super heroes.

In late 2016 Andrew met José Jover, the editor in charge of the French publisher Tartamudo Editions at the Salon BD in Paris. Shortly thereafter, a partnership was struck to bring their original graphic novel titles to the United States and Canada.
