Marc Daniëls was a Belgian painter and comic creator. He is best known for his collaborations with Rik Dewulf (who called themselves "De Marck & De Wulf") in their Studio Max! comics, notably the children's adventure 'Stam & Pilou' (1999) for the Belgian postal services. In 1999, Studio Max! was hired by the Belgian postal service, La Poste, to create two mascots for their young stamp collectors' club and its magazine StamPilou . De Marck and Rik De Wulf introduced a boy, Stam, and a girl, Pilou, who lived in the same neighborhood. The good friends were often pitted against Pilou's grandfather, Fons, who was once a postman but is now a stamp collector. Known as The Unintentional Adventures of Stam and Pilou, the series was published in the club's magazine StamPilou, but was so popular that La Poste also launched a book series in cooperation with Standaard Uitgeverij
