La Cité des Orphelins

In La Cité des Orphelins, a single, self-contained graphic novel from Atlantic BD (2012–present), creator Vincent Mallié crafts a hauntingly atmospheric tale of a mysterious orphanage and the children who inhabit it. The story unfolds in a richly detailed, almost dreamlike setting, blending elements of fantasy and suspense. This debut issue establishes Mallié as a distinctive voice in European bande dessinée, offering a concise yet immersive narrative that lingers with the reader.
