Jean de la Lune

Written by the acclaimed French cartoonist Yvan Pommaux, Jean de la Lune is a single-issue comic (1996–present) from L'école des loisirs that reimagines the classic Italian folk tale of a man who travels to the moon and back. Through Pommaux's warm, detailed watercolor art, the story follows Jean's gentle, whimsical lunar adventure and his return to Earth, where his journey is met with skepticism. This standalone album stands as a beloved, beautifully illustrated entry in European children's comics, showcasing Pommaux's signature blend of myth and everyday wonder.
