Farinet, le faux-monnayeur

In this 2019 graphic novel from publisher Favre, a single-issue series brings the legendary Swiss counterfeiter Farinet to vivid life. Rooted in historical folklore, the story explores the outlaw’s defiance against authority and his romanticized reputation as a folk hero. The creative team crafts a tight, atmospheric narrative that distills Farinet’s myth into a concise, visually striking comic—a focused snapshot of Swiss cultural history in the medium.
