"Atar Gull" ou le destin d'un esclave modèle

Eugène Sue's 19th-century novel "Atar Gull" is adapted into a stark, single-volume graphic novel by writer Fabien Nury and artist Brüno, published by Dargaud in 2011. This French comic reexamines the story of a model slave whose apparent obedience masks a calculated, devastating pursuit of vengeance against his former masters. The creators distill Sue's original tale into a powerful, visually haunting exploration of slavery's brutality and the corrosive nature of retribution. It stands as a notable, self-contained work in modern European comics for its unflinching historical perspective.
