L'homme qui se laissait pousser la barbe

From 2010, Actes Sud published this single-issue French comic, a standalone meditation on identity and transformation through the simple act of growing a beard. The series is defined by its quiet, introspective storytelling and the distinctive artistic style of its creator, who uses the premise to explore deeper themes of time, self-perception, and societal norms. Though brief, it stands as a memorable, self-contained work in contemporary European comics.
