Jean-François Marie Victoire Northomb (born 5 January 1919, Hasselt, Belgium, died 6 June 2008, Rome, Italy), code named Franco, was a member of the clandestine Comet Line during World War II. Founded in Belgium, the Comet Line helped people, especially Allied airmen shot down over Nazi-occupied Europe, evade capture by the Germans and escape to Great Britain. Northomb joined the Comet Line in August 1942 and led the Line from June 1943 to January 1944. He is credited with helping guide 215 persons, mostly escaping and evading airmen, on the hazardous journey from Paris to Spain. He led airmen on foot across the Pyrenees many times, eluding Spanish and German border patrols. He was captured in Paris by the Germans in January 1944 and sentenced to death but instead imprisoned for the duration of the war. He survived and became a Roman Catholic priest and missionary. He later left the priesthood and married.
