Mike's place - Chronique d'un attentat #[nn]

The cover of this French-language graphic novel from Steinkis presents a warm, almost bittersweet image: a group photo of five smiling people, rendered in a clean, accessible ligne claire style — yet the torn, bloodstained edges framing that snapshot immediately signal that something has shattered this moment of camaraderie. Created by Jack Baxter, Joshua Faudem, and Koren Shadmi, Mike's Place — Chronique d'un attentat promises a deeply human account of a real attack, balancing intimacy and tragedy in a way that feels both personal and urgent. Published in 2015, this is the kind of graphic storytelling that reminds us why the medium is so powerful for bearing witness.
