Capharnaüm #1
This French-language collection gathers the early installments of the Capharnaüm series, originally published by L'Association in 2014. The volume presents a surreal, narrative-driven exploration of its titular world, known for its experimental storytelling and distinctive artistic style within the alternative comics scene.
Capharnaüm #1, written and illustrated by Lewis Trondheim, introduces Willard Watte—a vigilante unlike any other—whose crime-fighting exploits are serialized in comic form. When Martin Mollin, a somewhat hapless bookstore owner, stumbles into a mystery tied to his favorite comic hero, the line between fiction and reality begins to blur. The story’s sharp wit and layered storytelling are brought to life by Trondheim’s distinctive art, with the cover by Trondheim capturing the comic’s quirky, noir-tinged tone.
