About the series
In this two-issue series from Gallimard (2015–2016), Hâsib et la reine des serpents adapts a classic tale from the One Thousand and One Nights, following the young woodcutter Hâsib as he stumbles into a mythical underworld realm ruled by a serpent queen. The story is most associated with the elegant, atmospheric artwork of Marie Caillou, whose lush visuals bring the ancient Middle Eastern folklore to life. A concise but striking entry in French bande dessinée, it offers a fresh, visually rich take on a lesser-known fable of wisdom, loyalty, and transformation.
