À la recherche du Nouveau Père #[nn]

A striking black-and-white cover sets the tone for this 2015 Dargaud album from Gwendoline Raisson and Magali Le Huche — a lone figure carrying a small child in a vivid pink carrier stands out against a dense, swirling crowd of sketched faces and bodies. That single pop of color amid the graphic monochrome beautifully captures a sense of searching and standing apart, making À la recherche du nouveau père immediately compelling before you've even opened the first page.
