The comic book industry is a cornerstone of French culture, and the influence of the French industry is only increasing. Indeed, many French people became familiar with the so-called ninth art thanks to titles like Asterix or Tintin. Even today, Asterix is the favorite character of French comic book consumers.

A French industry…

Comic books are a hobby that appeals to young and old alike, regardless of gender or occupation. If younger readers seem to consume more comics than their elders, reading comics is common to all age groups. Despite the rise of digital reading on mobile or tablet devices, most readers prefer to read their favorite comics in paper format.

… but not only

However, comics are far from being limited to French-Belgian productions. While Marvel and DC superheroes are invading the screens all over the world and top the list of the most popular movies in France, the American comics industry is experiencing unparalleled growth in the French market. At the same time, the manga industry is not weakening among the French public and is becoming more and more popular thanks to hits such as Attack on Titan.
