Portugal

In Portugal, a single, self-contained graphic novel by French cartoonist Cyril Pedrosa, a disillusioned artist travels to his ancestral homeland to reconnect with his roots. Published by Silvester in 2012, this meditative work blends autobiography and fiction, using Pedrosa’s expressive, fluid linework to explore themes of identity, belonging, and the weight of family history. It’s a poignant, visually striking story that stands as a quiet masterpiece of European comics.
