La Guerre des boutons

Set in a rural French village during the early 20th century, La Guerre des boutons adapts Louis Pergaud’s classic novel into a vivid comic series from Vents d’Ouest. Launched in 2012, this single-issue volume captures the timeless, mischievous war between two bands of boys, who fight to steal each other’s buttons as trophies. The series is best known for the warm, detailed artwork of Olivier Jouvray and the storytelling of Jérôme Félix, bringing a beloved slice of childhood rebellion to the page.
