Dead Reckoning will release Once Upon a Time in France in a single 368-page volume in September. The story by Fabien Nury and Sylvain Vallee was originally published in six volumes in French, winning the Best Series Award at Angouleme (see "Art Spiegelman Wins Grand Prize at Angouleme"). Over 1 million copies have been sold worldwide.
Once Upon a Time in France tells the story of Joseph Joanovici, a Romanian Jew who migrated to France in the 1920s and became one of the richest men in Europe. When the Nazis invade, he became a collaborator and resisted occupation, playing both sides in an attempt to save himself and his family.
The 10.88" X 8.5" softcover will retail for $29.95.
