Tendre banlieue #6

A quiet suburban street sets the scene for Le Tournage, the sixth volume in Tito's warmly observed Tendre Banlieue series from Casterman. The cover shows three teenagers — two boys and a girl — walking together past the brick and rendered apartment buildings of an everyday French suburb, rendered in Tito's characteristically grounded, naturalistic style. It's an understated image that captures the series' signature mix of youth, friendship, and the texture of ordinary life perfectly.
