“The Y-Cons” The Artist's Voice
The Passion For Drawing


Youssef Sy, born in France in 1982, found his spark in the pages of comic books. As a boy, he loved their brave heroes, drawing them with a pencil that felt like magic. Then he discovered Japanese manga, with its beautiful lines and deep stories, and his passion grew stronger. These drawings weren’t just fun—they were the start of his dream to be an artist.
Sy worked hard to make it real. For five years, he was Head of Design for the digital section of Havas Sports Group, learning how to make ideas sharp and clear. But his heart stayed with drawing. So he moved to Japan for six years, living where manga came from. There, he created The Y-Cons—a special character that mixed his love for comics and manga into something new.
The Y-Cons is Sy’s art come to life. It has the bold spirit of comics and the quiet beauty of manga, all in one. Every line shows his passion, a gift from the boy who dreamed to the man who dared. It’s simple, yet strong—a picture of what he believes in.
Today Youssef Sy’s journey shines bright. From comics to Japan, he’s carried his love for drawing like a light. The Y-Cons is his voice, telling us all: follow what you love, and let it lift you up. It’s elegant proof that big dreams start with small lines.
