La saison des billes

A quiet, contemplative one-shot from Swiss publisher Atrabile, La saison des billes (2013–present) distills the fragile, wordless world of childhood play into a single, self-contained comic. Known for its poetic, minimalist approach, the series captures a single season of marble games as a metaphor for innocence and loss. Its sole issue stands as a complete, resonant vignette, notable for the publisher's reputation for thoughtful, experimental European storytelling.
