Les Éternels de Ponthierville

A quiet but potent debut from Des Bulles dans l'Océan, Les Éternels de Ponthierville (2021–present) is a single-issue comic that explores memory, place, and legacy in a small Congolese town. The series establishes its scope through a deeply personal, atmospheric lens, grounding its narrative in the specific history and landscape of Ponthierville. While the creative team behind this initial issue is not widely known outside of the publisher's sphere, the work signals a thoughtful addition to the growing library of Francophone African comics. Its importance lies in its commitment to telling a local story with universal resonance, marking a promising entry in contemporary bande dessinée.
