About the series
In this sly French fantasy series from Arboris, Alain Ayroles and Bruno Maïorana turn the fairy-tale world on its head: Garulfo is a frog who, granted a wish, becomes a prince—only to discover that human royalty is far more absurd and corrupt than his pond ever was. Running from 2003 to 2014 across six issues, the story blends sharp social satire with lush, storybook art, poking fun at the very tropes it lovingly evokes. It’s a witty, beautifully drawn fable for readers who like their magic with a side of irony.
