Cartoonist Fabrice Meddour and screenwriter Damien Marie are back with volume 2 of their comic strip “After Hell”.

A comic strip that mixes voodoo and bayou, initiatory journey and fantastic tale, after the Civil War.

Publicity

Imagine all the characters from "Wizard of Oz" and "Alice in Wonderland" transposed into a bayou in North Carolina, physically and psychologically damaged by the horror of the American Civil War.

Add to it a western atmosphere, a few more or less leaning towards great American films, flaming crosses like those of the sinister Ku Klux Klan, and to top it all off some spirits and other zombies who would participate in a great ceremony voodoo.

You will then obtain a strange story that takes two comic books, born of a singular alchemy between history, tale and the fantastic.

"Alice's garden" and "Le Bayou d'Oz", the two volumes of the diptych "After Hell", by

Damien Marie

and

Fabrice Meddour

, are available in Bamboo editions, in the Grand Angle collection.

Marjorie Bertin

was interested in museums which have been very present on social networks since the pandemic.

Some are reaching out to teenagers through TikTok, the favorite Chinese app for 15-25 year olds.

Closed today, museums use TikTok to showcase their collections.
