Les Collectionneurs

A quiet, character-driven French comic from Editions du Long Bec, Les Collectionneurs (2015–present) follows a man whose unusual hobby—collecting the forgotten objects left behind in Parisian cafés—leads to a series of gentle, poignant encounters. Created by writer and artist Jérôme Jouvray, the single-issue story explores memory, solitude, and the small connections that define urban life. It stands as a tender, meditative slice-of-life work, notable for its subtle observation and Jouvray’s expressive, warm linework.
