SuperS #1

A striking deep-blue cover sets the mood for this French graphic novel, where two pink-haired children stand close together at the center of a crowd of young onlookers rendered in cool, atmospheric tones. The art by Frédéric Maupomé and Dawid gives the scene a quietly charged feeling — those two figures clearly stand apart from the world around them. SuperS #1, published by Éditions de la Gouttière in 2015, looks like a compelling opener for anyone who loves youth-centered stories with a touch of the extraordinary.
