Le sang de la paix

In this intimate, single-issue graphic novel from French publisher Les 400 cases, Le sang de la paix explores the fragile aftermath of conflict through the eyes of a returning soldier. Released in 2016, the story is anchored by the restrained, atmospheric art of its creator, who also writes, weaving a quiet meditation on the lingering costs of war. Though a standalone work, it stands as a poignant example of the European bande dessinée tradition of character-driven, contemplative storytelling.
