Until the 1970s, French-language comics (a term including comics created in both France and in Belgium) were really divided into three almost entirely separate industries: A) COMIC STRIPS than ran in the newspapers and were almost entirely aimed at an adult (i.e.: grown up) market. B) The socially respectable MAINSTREAM COMICS aimed at children and published in weekly magazines, such as SPIROU, TINTIN, VAILLANT (retitled PIF, and PILOTE. These published only G-rated cartoony or realistic adventures, humorous stories, and virtually no science fiction, a genre deemed too intense for children. C) A myriad of cheaper, monthly or bimonthly magazines, sold to satisfy the demand for harder-edged, more violent, more fantastic, American-style stories. The publishers of these magazines (AREDIT/ARTIMA, IMPERIA, LUG, AVENTURES & VOYAGES, etc.) either translated American, Italian and Spanish material, or produced their own French-made stories. Naturally, parents and educators frowned upon these magazines. A law was passed in France in July 1949 to create a censorship committee to monitor youth magazines. Originally published in a large-size format and in color, most of these magazines were, as a result of censorship, forced to go to a pocket-size, black & white format, hence their name, the _PETITS FORMATS_ .TIMELINE
