Marie pleurait sur les pieds de Jésus #[nn]
In "Caïn et Abel," Chester Brown delivers a stark, emotionally charged retelling of a biblical tale, exploring themes of duty, desire, and consequence through the story of Tamar and her complex entanglement with Judah and his sons. Rendered with Brown’s signature minimalist yet powerful style—his art and inks lending quiet intensity to the narrative—this issue is a compelling meditation on moral ambiguity, translated with precision by Jean-Baptiste Bernet and lettered by Marion Ollivier.
