Célimène

A brief but striking two-issue series from Le Lombard, Célimène reimagines Molière's classic The Misanthrope as a contemporary graphic novel. Published between 2011 and 2013, it translates the play's sharp social satire into a modern setting, exploring themes of hypocrisy, love, and disillusionment. The series is notable for its elegant, full-color artwork and its ambitious, faithful adaptation of a 17th-century masterpiece for a new audience.
