About the series
In Philippe Richelle and François Ravard's Les mystères de la cinquième République (2013–2017), the five-issue series from Glénat peels back the curtain on the political intrigues and secret forces shaping modern France. Rather than a straightforward history, it blends fact with suspense, following a journalist as he navigates the hidden corridors of power from the early days of the Fifth Republic. Ravard's clean, expressive linework grounds the story in a recognizable world, while Richelle's taut plotting turns each chapter into a compelling geopolitical puzzle. It's a thoughtful, grown-up thriller that treats the nation's recent past as a living, shadowy conspiracy.
