Odvážné pastýřky – Garnier Jonathan (2026)

This Celtic fantasy comic follows a medieval seaside village where only women, children, and old men remain after the men left to fight ten years earlier and never returned. To defend the village and its herds, the women created an order of brave shepherdesses. Ten-year-old Molly is delighted to begin her training and join the bravest of them, relying on her battle goat Blackbeard and her friend Liam with his enormous dog Zoran. Liam also wants to join the order, because adventure is not only for girls. When the friends encounter a creature apparently born of dark magic, their investigation takes them far beyond their home, to the Island of Wizards. Inspired by Celtic legends, this popular series offers an exciting and humorous story about family and the strength of community, reminiscent of the animated films Brave, Wolfwalkers, and How to Train Your Dragon. More than 250,000 copies have sold in France, and an animated series is in preparation. The comic has received awards at the Angoulême International Comics Festival, the l’Alpe d’Huez Comics Festival, and from the IMAGINARTOIS youth literature association. For readers aged eight and up.
