I was surprised to learn about this comic book.
It's in French, distributed by the publisher Soleil Productions. I suppose Robin Hobb would definitely have needed to give her permission for it.
Personally, I don't like it very much. The drawings are very lifeless, obviously yet another artist who is good at lifelike portraits of people but who has very little talent in drawing comic book characters or expressions. And the colours are done with Photoshop. He should have read a bit more Blacksad before attempting this!
But then I've never been happy about having my own image of the characters spoiled by somebody else's artwork. I'm one of those crazy people who ripped out all the pages which contained artwork in my brand new copy of Stephen Kings' Dark Tower book.
