Rouen

From 2015 to 2018, the French publisher Éditions Petit à Petit released Rouen, a four-issue comic series that explores the history and atmosphere of the Norman city through a blend of documentary and fictional storytelling. Known for its "Docu-BD" approach, the series weaves together archival material, illustrated maps, and character-driven narratives to capture Rouen's medieval architecture, its role in the Hundred Years' War, and the legacy of Joan of Arc. The project stands out for its innovative format, treating a single city as both subject and setting across a compact but richly layered run.
