10. What comic artist used the pseudonym "Jack Kirby"? What comic(s) did this artist create? I know he did a lot of work for Marvel on stuff like the Fantastic Four and Captain America.
I also know Hergé is Georges Remi - they had a programme on TV recently about him. Another of my boyhood faves.

Correct on all accounts. Jean Henri is just his first names, do you know his last names as well? From what you write I'm positive we're talking about the same guy, so you get the point for the name, but I was hoping to get the last name. "Heavy Metal" was a magazine started by Moebius together with Jean-Pierre Dionnet, Philippe Druillet and Bernard Farkas, but it was not a comic strip that was drawn as far as I am aware. If I am mistaken on this point, please do correct me. If you know any of his comics (i.e. some of the series he created) there are a lot of bonus points to get here still beause he was very productive. He died in March this year. It was sad, as you say, because he was a brilliant artist.
You are also right about Georges Remi. I give both you and pdurrant one point each for finding his name.

I still have a hangover from yesterday, so my head is not in its usual mode yet, but I fail to see where
The Lavender Hill Mob comes into it?
