Aweto

Aweto, a French-language series from Gallimard launched in 2019, follows a young boy and his mother as they traverse a fantastical, post-apocalyptic world in search of a mysterious, powerful seed. Written and illustrated by Chongru Nie, this two-issue series blends Chinese folklore with a lush, painterly style to explore themes of migration and survival. Its concise, visually rich storytelling makes it a distinctive entry in contemporary European comics.
