Tendre banlieue #13

Part of Tito's long-running Tendre Banlieue series from Casterman, this thirteenth volume carries the quietly loaded title Le Père de Julien — "Julien's Father." The cover sets the tone perfectly: a heavyset older man gestures and speaks while a teenage boy, arms folded and expression guarded, listens with visible tension against a sun-warmed brick wall. That body language alone captures the kind of complicated, everyday human drama that has always made this series feel so grounded and real.
