Hauteville house, 1864. La plume, Victor Hugo, héberge le glaive : une poignée de soldats républicains engagés dans la lutte armée contre le régime autoritaire de l'empereur napoléon iii. Gabriel Valentin-le-Rochelle, nom de code Gavroche, agent très spécial au service secret de la république, est expédié au Mexique où les sbires de l'empire sont sur le point de libérer une entité qui rendra napoléon maître de toutes les Amériques. La mission de Gavroche : combattre, contrecarrer, improviser.

About Thierry Gioux
Thierry Gioux was born near the coast of Normandy, and lived there until leaving Rouen for the Basque country in 1998. After studying English Language and Plastic Arts, he began working on his first comics projects. His first albums were the oblong 'Déserteurs!' (Futuropolis, 1988) and the third volume in the series 'Si le coran m'était conté' (script Youssef Seddik, Alef, 1989). He also cooperated on some fanzines and succeeded Philippe Adamov on the series 'Le Vent des Dieux', starting with the sixth album in 1991.
Fascinated by Mexico and its history, he created 'Waldeck' with writer Luc Delisse for the publishing house Glénat, a biographical series about the life of poet, explorer and commedian Frédéric Waldeck. Two books were published in 1998 and 2000. He creates the historical series 'Hauteville House' with Fred Duval for Delcourt since 2004.
