De Briques & de Sang

A single-issue French comic from Casterman, De Briques & de Sang (2010–present) is a self-contained graphic novel that blends gritty urban realism with crime drama. The story is set in the housing projects of the Paris suburbs, exploring themes of violence, poverty, and survival through a stark, expressive art style. While the series consists of only one issue, it stands as a potent, standalone work by its creators, capturing a specific moment in French bande dessinée’s engagement with social issues.
