About the series
In The Tarot Café (2004–2009), a mysterious young woman named Pamela runs a café where she reads tarot cards for her supernatural clientele—a ghost, a vampire, and a fairy, among others—each seeking solace or closure. Published by Soleil, this five-issue French comic series, written and illustrated by the acclaimed duo of writer Jean-Luc Istin and artist Jérôme Lereculey, blends cozy fantasy with poignant, character-driven storytelling. Its quiet, melancholic charm and lush, detailed artwork have made it a beloved cult favorite for fans of gentle, otherworldly tales.
