Les dessous de Pointe-Noire #[nn]

Published by L'Harmattan BD in 2018, this French-language graphic novel from creator KHP pulls readers into the streets of Pointe-Noire, Congo's vibrant coastal city. The cover sets a noir-tinged mood immediately — a woman in a pink dress and heels stands in the foreground while an SUV idles on a nighttime urban street, a towering residential bloc glowing pink behind her. It's a sharp, stylish composition that promises a story rooted in the real textures and hidden lives of a city rarely seen on the comics page.
