The Angoulême Festival has revealed their winners of 2013.
The Grand Prix was split, between Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball who received a "Special" 40th Anniversary Grand Prix while Willem got the actual regular Grand Prix. The one that counts.
Expect controvery to come, Toriyama got the most votes from French comic creators, but the Academy chose to go with Willem instead, by far the most obscure of the finalists.

The Jury Special Award went to Le Nao De Brown by Glyn Dillon
