About the series
Published by Salleck from 2009 to 2022, Mattéo is a six-issue European graphic novel series by writer-artist Jean-Pierre Gibrat, with additional writing by Eckart Schott. Set against the backdrop of 20th-century French history, the series follows the life of its titular protagonist through times of war and personal upheaval. Gibrat’s lush, painterly artwork and nuanced storytelling bring a deeply human scale to historical events, making Mattéo a quietly acclaimed work in the bande dessinée tradition.
