Face au mur

In this two-issue series from Casterman (2017–2018), writer Jean-Claude Pautot and artist Laurent Astier (who also co-writes) deliver a taut, self-contained story. The narrative follows a character forced to confront a wall—both literal and metaphorical—in a tense, minimalist thriller. Astier’s stark, expressive artwork amplifies the claustrophobic atmosphere, making this a concise but memorable entry in French comics.
