Le Club des bandes dessinées (French for The Club of Comics) was the first organized association of French devotees to the comic strip as art form. It was founded in May 1962. In 1964 the Club was renamed the Centre d’Etudes d’expression of Littératures Graphique (CELEG or Center for Studies of Graphic Literary Expression).The club was initially devoted to the comics of the 1930s and 1940s but its field of interest gradually extended to contemporary comics as well.
