It is one of the bestselling Franco Belgian comics series. The title character, an adult, human sized, anthropomorphism anthropomorphic cat, first appeared in March 22nd 1983. Le Chat often comes up with elaborate reasonings which lead to hilariously absurd conclusions e.g. by taking metaphors literally or by adding increasingly unlikely what ifs to ordinary situations. One page in length, it appears weekly in the Victor supplement of Belgian newspaper Le Soir . For Le Chat s 20th anniversary in 2004, Le Soir allowed Geluck to illustrate that day s entire newspaper. An exhibition of Le Chat s history and that of his creator , Le Chat s expose , was first held at the Autoworld Motor Museum in Brussels in Spring 2004, and has since toured Europe. It was most recently March October 2006 at Les Champs Libres in Rennes .
