La reine Margot

In 2006, the French publisher Théloma launched La reine Margot, a historical comic series that adapts the tumultuous life of Marguerite de Valois, the 16th-century queen of France. This single-issue work distills the political intrigue and personal drama of the Wars of Religion into a concise, visually rich narrative, showcasing the publisher's focus on literary and historical subjects. While the series remains a standalone volume, it stands as a thoughtful entry in European bande dessinée, offering a focused portrait of a complex royal figure.
