Kerascoet is a team of Marie Pommepuy and Sebastien Cosset. This was their first series. Their artwork is reminiscent of Joann Sfar.
This is the English language edition.
From the publisher:
Blanche tries to leave the Pompadour, the high class house of call-girls, but their hooks are in deep. Nevertheless she encounters what could be her ticket out: a very handsome and very respectful young rich man, Antoine. She also reunites with her long-lost mother. It all seems rather idyllic but Antoine may be a little too respectful and how come her mother suddenly reappears?
"Kerascoet depicts action and emotion beuatifully and elegantly, with great feeling and boundless humor."
-Richard Pachter, The Miami Herald"The plot fairly gallops in this naughty adult soap opera; snappy dialog keeps up the pace. Richly detailed full-color art offers both humor and pathos, creating engaging characters and a strong sense of place. [Those] who like outrageous plot twists and offbeat characters should enjoy this romp."
-Library Journal"Hubert and Kerascoet tell this episode with artfulness and empathy that allow readers to appreciate Blanche’s dignity as well as her energy and creativity."
