Adults are as lost as the children they should be protecting, as the lives of four people trapped in a conspiracy of silence hurtle toward a desperate and devastating act.

Their teacher, Hélène, suspects something is not right with Théo and becomes obsessed with rescuing him, casting aside her professionalism to the point of no return. Cécile, mother of Mathis, discovers something horrifying on her husband's computer that makes her question whether she has ever truly known him.

Available in English for the first time—the internationally bestselling graphic novel and an Official Selection at France’s prestigious Angoulême Internaional Comics Festival by master illustrator-storyteller Chabouté (Park Bench, Moby-Dick).On a tiny lighthouse island far from the rest of the world, a lonely hermit lives out his existence. Every week a supply boat leaves provisions, its occupants never meeting him, never asking the obvious questions: Who are you? Why do you hide? Why do you never leave? What is it like to be so alone? Years spent on a deserted rock—a lifetime, really—with imagination his sole companion has made the lighthouse keeper something more than alone, something else entirely. For him, what lies beyond the horizon might be...nothing. And so, why not stay put? But one day, as a new boatman starts asking the questions all others have avoided, a chain of events unfolds that will irrevocably upend the hermit’s solitary life.... Filled with stunning and richly executed black-and-white illustrations, Alone is Chabouté’s masterpiece—an unforgettable tale where tenderness, despair, and humor intertwine to flawlessly portray how someone can be an everyman, and every man is someone. Translated from the French by Ivanka Hahnenberger.

En matière de western, Blueberry constitue la référence absolue. C'est en 1963 qu'est créé ce personnage pour PILOTE par Charlier et Giraud. Ils campent au départ un solide soldat qui s'affiche comme le sosie de Belmondo. La ressemblance s'estompe au fil des épisodes. Blueberry est une forte tête : teigneux, pas toujours respectueux de la rigueur militaire, indiscipliné, il n'hésite pas parfois à déserter pour remplir au mieux ses missions. Le scénario utilise tous les poncifs du Western américain avec tout ce qu'il faut de rebondissements et de personnages pittoresques (Mc Clure, Angel Face, Red Nick, Chihuahua Pearl etc. sans compter les Indiens qui sont réhabilités par les auteurs, point de vue adopté d'ailleurs dans Cartland). Parallèlement au cycle classique de la saga de Blueberry, Giraud dessine entre 68 et 70 la jeunesse du futur lieutenant. Cette "série" reprend son cours en 85 sous le crayon de Colin Wilson, très respectueux du style imposé par Giraud. Les albums ont successivement été édités par Dargaud (22 titres, l'essentiel du fond) puis par Fleurus/Hachette, puis par Novédi et enfin par Alpen pour la nouveauté dessinée par Vance. Dargaud a entrepris la réédition des albums Blueberry remaquettés et agrémentés de nouvelles couleurs.
