Angry Birds

In 2013, French publisher Le Lombard launched a five-issue comic series based on the global mobile game phenomenon Angry Birds. The series translated the game's slapstick, physics-based bird-versus-pig conflict into a full narrative, expanding the world beyond the screen with original stories. While the game’s creators at Rovio oversaw the brand, the comic was written and drawn by European comics talent, giving the property a distinct, cartoonish flair. It stands as a key example of the early 2010s wave of licensed video-game comics aimed at younger readers, offering a playful extension of the franchise that millions knew from their phones.
