There are several ways to get a Mau Heymans index from Inducks, for instance
http://bolderbast.inducks.org/inducks/mheymanss.html (and other indexes
linked from http://bolderbast.inducks.org/xxcreators.html).
Your mail reminded me to update those pages, which I did just before sending
this mail. 8-)

I'm a big Heymans fan. Especially the stories that he wrote himself,
together with his former girlfriend Kirsten de Graaf, are very good. One of
my favourites:

Yes, they are brothers. Bas started his Duckwork with inking Mau's stories.
That also explains their similarity in styles.

A small photograph of the brothers can be found here:
