About the series
A lushly illustrated French comic series from Futuropolis, Les contes drolatiques adapts Honoré de Balzac’s bawdy, satirical tales of 16th-century Touraine. Launched in 2021, the series reimagines Balzac’s irreverent narratives with vivid artwork, blending historical ribaldry with modern comic storytelling. Though only a single issue has been released, its distinctive visual style and literary pedigree mark it as a noteworthy entry in contemporary European graphic literature.
