About the series
In 2019, Delcourt published Mes héros ont toujours été des junkies, a single-issue graphic novel that stands as a poignant, standalone story. The work is most associated with writer Ed Brubaker and artist Sean Phillips, the celebrated crime-noir duo, and it matters as a mature, character-driven exploration of addiction and obsession told through a young woman's perspective. Set in the world of suburban California, it offers a compressed, emotionally resonant tale that exemplifies the creators' signature blend of psychological depth and stark realism.
