Magazines and Hollywood
In 1979, the Lofficiers built on Jean-Marc's earlier work for fanzines and French magazines – including ''
Lunatique'' and ''
L'Ecran Fantastique'', for which he wrote a combination of articles, reviews and short stories – and began working as "film journalists" for a variety of "cinema/
sf pro magazines."
Covering the Hollywood-based film industry (and particularly those aspects with a Sci-Fi or Fantasy bent), the Lofficiers wrote for a number of magazines created both for American and overseas audiences.
Their work appeared in such mainstream U.S. publications as ''
Starlog'', ''
Cinefex'', ''
Heavy Metal'' and ''
American Cinematographer'', as well as more focused publications including
T. E. D. Klein's ''

W. H. Allen in 1981 – arose from their work for French magazine ''L'Ecran Fantastique''. The pair produced
