Les Gueules rouges

In Les Gueules rouges, a gritty historical thriller from French publisher Glénat, the series launched in 2017 with a single volume that plunges readers into the brutal world of 18th-century French soldiers known as the "Red Muzzles." Created by writer Éric Adam and artist Didier Convard, this standalone comic explores the harsh realities of military life and colonial conflict through a tense, character-driven narrative. Its focused, self-contained story matters for its unflinching look at a lesser-known chapter of French history, blending meticulous period detail with a gripping human drama.
