Ever since Roald Dahl and J.K. Rowling became household names, the fantasy genre has been part and parcel of literature for children, and comics are no exception! Here are a few remarkable examples from our catalogues.
Some of the characters in our young readers’ comics explore a parallel universe, like pastry apprentice Chris in Monster Délices (Monster Delights) or Milo in Le Monde de Milo (Milo’s World). Others already inhabit a fanciful universe but lack magical powers, like Cosmo in Absolument normal (Absolutely Normal). Fresh takes on fairytales also abound in the comics medium, like in the award-winning L’Emouvantail (The Carecrow), where a scarecrow comes to life, befriending birds instead of scaring them away…
These recent releases bring magic into the life of our children like only good books know how to do.
