Le Roi du Ring #1

From Bigault and Rolland comes this energetic first volume of Le Roi du Ring, subtitled Graine de Champion — "Seed of a Champion." The cover sets the tone perfectly: a young boxer stands triumphant in the ring, fist raised to the roar of a packed crowd, bathed in dramatic spotlight against warm amber tones. Published by Dargaud in 2012, this French sports comics series promises an accessible, heartfelt look at the world of boxing and the hunger it takes to reach the top.
