Lewis Trondheim (born Laurent Chabosy, 11 December 1964) is a French comics creator and cartoonist, known for being insanely prolific and drawing over 100 titles, from autobiographical and children's comics to conceptual, high-art comics and short strips. He's been on hiatus from comic-making since 2004, partly as burnout from said insane workload.

His real name is Laurent Chabosy, and his PenName comes from the Norwegian city of Trondheim. His explanation for this was that "as a last name I wanted to use a city's name, but Lewis Bordeaux or Lewis Toulouse didn't sound so good."

Two of his comics series, ''La Mouche'' and ''Kaput et Zosky'' received {{Animated Adaptation}}s done between Canadian and French studios for Creator/{{Teletoon}} and France 3, being adapted as ''WesternAnimation/FlyTales'' and ''WesternAnimation/KaputAndZosky: The Ultimate Obliterators'' respectively.

His notable works include:
* ''Les formidables aventures de Lapinot'' a/k/a ''ComicBook/TheSpiffyAdventuresOfMcConey'', a satirical fantasy series where all the characters are animals. He chose this style since FurriesAreEasierToDraw. Ran for 10 volumes.
* ''Donjon'' a/k/a ''Dungeon'', co-written by Trondheim and Johann Sfar, a series dealing with a ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons''-style dungeon through three time periods and with different tones in each story. Not to be confused with ''AudioPlay/LeDonjonDeNaheulbeuk''. His longest-running work at over 30 volumes.
* ''Le roi castrophe'', or ''Tiny Tyrant'', a series about the misadventures of the vain and despotic King Ethelbert... who also happens to be a 6-year-old boy -- and a very bratty one, at that. This one is aimed at younger audience than the previous two, with eight volumes published.
* ''Monstreux'', following the life of a typical French family of four anthropomorphic birds, save for the fact their pet is a big, blue, multi-limbed monster named Jean-Christophe. Also for children, with three volumes published.
* ''ComicBook/KaputAndZosky'', another kid-aimed series, this one about a bumbling pair of villainous aliens who attempt to conquer other planets and enslave their inhabitants, without much success. Two volumes produced.
* ''La Mouche'' a/k/a ''The Fly'', an entirely dialogue-free comic about the misadventures of a housefly. Trondheim initially published this one for the Japanese market, but later redrew the series from scratch for French audiences.
