I don't know much about Olsen other than he has a Danish-Norwegian surname and his art vaguely fits under the umbrella of 'LC.' Specifically, I enjoy the playful style he uses in his comics. More samples from Tiny Dracula here:

“BD” refers to Franco-Belgian comics, but let's open things up to include ALL Euro comics and GN's. Euro-style work from around the world is also welcome!
* BD = "Bandes dessinées"
* BDT = Bedetheque
* GN = graphic novel
* LBK = Lambiek
* LC = "Ligne claire"

I love the idea of the US in its entirety as a pyramid scheme... well, its kinda sad as wel, but it's certainly an image!
I'm looking forward to this place becoming a bigger community, and I'd love to contribute as well. Thing is, I'm a bit of a wildcard when it comes to where my attention goes. Yet if the urge strikes me, can I just make posts? is there a certain format I should adhere to? Do we consider English comics also as part of this? (not mean as a cheap EU quip, but looking at Alan Moore's work for example; to me it feels more American than Franco-Belgian... which is why I labled him with the Americans in the first place... Or am I overthinking things now?
Sure, feel free to post when the mood hits you. You don't have to follow my format. I think the sidebar lays out everything you need to know, but there are also some posting tips in the FAQ. I personally consider the UK part of the the overall "Euro" experience, so please fire away with Moore or other Brits.
Altho yes, I know what you mean about certain UK creators straddling continents as it were. Bryan Talbot and Pat Mills come to mind...
