      Focusing on the intersection of art and philosophy, this book examines three French-language comics that portray the lives of prominent Existentialist thinkers: Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, and Albert Camus. It pioneers an analysis of biographical bande dessinée through an Existentialist framework, introducing a novel approach to reading and interpreting biographical comics. This unique perspective highlights the historical and artistic significance of these works, enriching the understanding of both the comics and the philosophers they depict.
