Toulouse #1

A commanding figure in Renaissance finery — plumed hat, gold chain, and richly embroidered doublet — dominates the cover of this opening volume, while below him a charging bull scatters desperate runners through the dusty streets of old Toulouse. The subtitle De Tolosa au Pays de Cocagne promises a sweeping journey through the city's layered history, from its ancient Roman roots to its prosperous medieval and early-modern identity. It's a visually striking introduction to what looks like a richly researched historical bande dessinée from Éditions Petit à Petit (2019).
