About the series
In 2022, the German publisher Reprodukt launched Vernon Subutex, a two-issue comic adaptation of Virginie Despentes’s acclaimed novel series. Adapted by Lilian Pithan and drawn by Luz, the story follows the titular former record-store owner as he navigates a fractured Parisian social landscape after his life unravels. Luz’s expressive, loose linework captures the raw energy and dark humor of Despentes’s world, making this a sharp, visually compelling entry into contemporary European graphic literature.
