Les aventures de Sophie Claveloux

Sophie Claveloux’s two-issue series, published by Éditions Michel Deligne from 1979 to 1981, follows the whimsical, dreamlike adventures of its eponymous young heroine through a surreal, richly illustrated world. Created and drawn by Claveloux herself, the series is a standout of late-1970s Franco-Belgian comics, blending childlike wonder with a subtle, poetic strangeness that sets it apart from more conventional children’s fare. Though brief, it remains a cherished cult artifact for its distinctive, hand-drawn charm and the singular vision of its creator.
