About the series
In this six-issue historical crime saga published by Glénat from 2007 to 2012, writer Fabien Nury and artist Sylvain Vallée trace the shadowy rise of a real-life French industrialist who collaborated with the Nazis during World War II. Rather than a straightforward biography, the series explores the moral compromises and survival instincts that allowed a man to navigate the Occupation, the postwar purges, and the shifting tides of power. With its moody, detailed artwork and nuanced storytelling, Il était une fois en France stands as a compelling examination of guilt, ambition, and the gray areas of history.
