Quatorze juillet

Bastien Vivès and Martin Quenehen reimagine the French national holiday in this 2020 one-shot from Casterman, a single-issue comic that uses the iconic date as a backdrop for a tense, contemporary narrative. Vivès, handling both writing and art, brings his signature clean, expressive linework to a story that explores the weight of history and the quiet dramas of modern urban life. It's a compact, atmospheric work that showcases the creative partnership between two of French comics' most compelling voices.
