John Bost

A quiet, introspective one-shot from French publisher La Boîte à Bulles, John Bost (2017–present) is a biographical comic centered on the life and legacy of the 19th-century Protestant pastor and philanthropist who founded the Fondation John Bost for people with disabilities. The single issue distills his compassionate, reform-minded work into a graphic narrative, offering readers a focused portrait of a lesser-known historical figure. Its significance lies in bringing a nuanced, humanistic story to the bande dessinée format, shedding light on social history through the lens of faith and care.
