	Enki Bilal
		The Nikopol Trilogy (1980 - 1992) - Enki Bilal
		Enki Bilal was born in the former Yugoslavia but he moved early in his life to Paris, France.
		Bilal's style is very elaborate and visual, and the grave atmosphere is characteristic to all his works, especially the ones that directly criticize political systems.

	Comic creator: Enki Bilal
		Enki Bilal, the son of a Czech mother and a Bosnian father, spent the first nine years of his life in Belgrade, where the ghost of World War II still haunted everyday life.
		The Bilal family moved to Paris in 1961, where Enki Bilal was drawn to comics and cinema.
		Bilal's stories are set in a magically orientated but realistic future after the Yugoslavian civil wars, giving Bilal the perfect setting against which to illustrate his fears.

		In 2004, Bilal directed the film adaptation Immortel (Ad Vitam), although many plot elements were changed from the comic book.
		Set in the year 2023, the book follows Alcide Nikopol who returns to Paris after being frozen in space for 30 years as a punishment after refusing to fight in a war.

	Movie-Vault.com: Print Review
		Bilal, to be fair, may be simply reflecting the tendency in European filmmaking to associate profundity with ambiguity.
		Bilal, showing the strains of an approach that favors pastiche over originality, never hesitates to liberally “borrow” from other, well-known science fiction films (some of them acknowledged “classics,” making his borrowings that much more brazen and calculated).
		Bilal’s decision to use CGI humans as secondary characters is equally puzzling.

	Paul Gravett: Article - Enki Bilal
		Ever since he was young, Bilal had a passion for comics and for the big screen, going every week to the movies, especially his favourites, westerns.
		Bilal's art evolved a greater sophistication, as he moved away from detailed linework towards more fully painted rendering and a richer colour palette.
		Bilal returned to the saga in 1986 with The Woman Trap, introducing the exotic femme fatale Jill Bioskop (the Serb word for cinema), a blue-haired reporter of the future with blood on her hands.

	32 Décembre - Enki Bilal - Chronique - Premonition
		Enki Bilal is undoubtedly the most renowned (though of Bosniac origins) and above all the most respected French drawer, as much by his peers as by comic books fans.
		Even if Bilal's drawing is still impressive, it hasn't changed much since "Froid équateur" (92).
		The good news is maybe that today, Enki Bilal is no longer the only main author of the 9th art, his heirs are numerous; he created a new art and he's undeniably the master of it.

	Ottawa XPress - Film - Immortal
		Enki Bilal is on his cinematic journey that will lead to a certain degree of success but has not reached the $$ point yet.
		Directors like Enki Bilal are important because they are willing to take chances and look back on their film evolutions and decide what else they would like to conquer.
		Bilal will eventually hit on something more mainstream (if Immortal is not the crowninh jewel career-wise) but doesn't appear to be in a hurry as he continues to explore new territory.

	DVD Times - Immortel (Ad Vitam) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Bilal has made several curious choices in making the film, using computer effects extensively not only for backgrounds and effects, but making some of the main characters completely computer animated.
		In quite a scene-specific commentary, Enki Bilal explains the significance of each scene, in terms of how it was shot, what is real and what is CGI, in terms of the music and how it all contributes to the scenes intended effect and to the film as a whole.
		Bilal’s long-awaited adaptation of his most famous comicbook creation to screen is ultimately a disappointment, but the fault has little to do with shortcomings in the computer technology used to render much of the film.

		Enki Bilal is one of the major figures in European comic art.
		Bilal was born in Yugoslavia (now Serbia), but has spent most of his life in France.
		The stories he illustrates tend to be dystopian (to say the least) and he seems to revel in the textures of decaying buildings, chipped paint, tortured wood, cracked ceramics, rough stone, broken concrete, grimy, soot covered surfaces and wrinkled skin.

	The Friday Review: The Hunting Party
		Bilal revisited the work in 1990, adding an epilogue of sorts that dealt with the collapse of the Soviet Union and the consequences it held for the characters in the original story, which has the effect of making the book look both timely and prophetic.
		Bilal's characteristically detailed art is perfectly suited to the story.
		Bilal has always brought a bleak, Eastern European look to the French graphic novel, and as might be expected, nowhere is this more pronounced than here.
