L'ours est un écrivain comme les autres #[nn]

Adapted from William Kotzwinkle's novel and brought to life by Alain Kokor, this Futuropolis release presents an irresistibly peculiar image: a bear in a plush bathrobe lounging in a chic high-rise apartment, sharing a relaxed tête-à-tête with an elegant blonde woman against a glittering city skyline. The warm, muted palette and unhurried composition give the cover a sophistication that perfectly suits its literary pedigree. For anyone drawn to comics that blend dry wit with genuine tenderness, this 2019 French-language volume looks like just the right kind of charming oddity.
