Exauce-nous #[nn]

From Futuropolis comes this French-language graphic novel by Bihel & Makyo, its cover drawing you in with two quietly compelling figures — a young person in the foreground clutching a red-gloved hand to their chest, and a watchful adult presence looming in the shadowed background. The muted, warmly rendered artwork carries an unmistakable air of unease and mystery, with the tagline hinting at a missing woman and an innocent caught up in something far bigger than themselves. A thoughtful, atmospheric work from 2008 that promises the kind of slow-burn, character-driven storytelling Futuropolis does so well.
