Le Petit Livre de la Bande Dessinée

Hervé Bourhis and Terreur Graphique collaborate on this single-issue Dargaud release from 2014, a compact, visually inventive history of the comic strip medium itself. As the title suggests, it’s a small-format book that packs a dense, witty survey of bande dessinée’s evolution, from its pioneers to its modern masters. Its charm lies in distilling a vast subject into a concise, playful primer, making it a distinctive entry point for both newcomers and longtime fans.
