Vers la ligne claire

In Vers la ligne claire, Ted Benoît crafts a singular, self-contained comic for Les Humanoïdes Associés that serves as both a meditation on and a demonstration of the "clear line" style of cartooning. Published in 1980, this single-issue work explores the principles of that aesthetic through Benoît's own clean, precise artwork, making it a notable artifact from the era's European comics scene. Its significance lies in its focused, meta-artistic approach to the very craft of comic book storytelling.
