Souffre-douleur

In this intimate, single-issue comic from French publisher çà et là, Souffre-douleur (2019–present) explores the quiet, painful dynamics of a schoolyard bullying relationship. The story focuses on the emotional weight carried by its young protagonist, rendered with understated art that prioritizes atmosphere over action. Though brief, it stands as a poignant, character-driven snapshot of childhood cruelty and resilience from the contemporary European small-press scene.
