Malika secouss #1

The first volume of Tehem's Malika Secouss arrives from Glénat with an instantly appealing energy — the cover places three young characters front and center in a lively urban setting, with Malika herself grinning confidently in the foreground, a breakdancing figure striking a pose in the background, and a cool, sunglasses-wearing companion hanging nearby, all surrounded by cheerful daisy motifs. It's a fresh, colorful introduction to a bande dessinée series rooted in street culture and youth life in 1998 France. Tehem's bold, expressive linework gives every character a distinct personality right from this opening image.
