Isab Abus

Isab Abus stepped onto the page in 2003, born from the creative partnership of Anne Baraou and Fanny Dalle-Rive for L'Association's Une demi-douzaine d'elles — a Modern Age French-language work that gathered a distinctive ensemble of characters under one roof. She shares her world with the likes of Michèle Roman, Suzie Bébé, Ugoline Saine, Véra Haine, and Armelle Naïve, a cast whose very names crackle with personality. With a modest but complete presence across the series' 2003–2009 run, Isab Abus is a gem for collectors drawn to the rich tradition of European independent comics and the singular voice L'Association brought to the medium.
