Fouché

In the late 2010s, French publisher Les Arènes released the three-issue miniseries Fouché, a biographical comic centered on the cunning French statesman Joseph Fouché. Known for his shifting allegiances during the French Revolution and Napoleonic era, the series explores his life as a master of political survival. The work is most associated with its writer and artist, who bring a dense, historically grounded approach to this complex figure. Fouché stands out as a concise, European graphic novel that illuminates a shadowy architect of modern statecraft.
