Friday October 6 releases the 20th volume of the comic strip Mortelle Adele. Absolute star of 8-12 year olds, this free little girl with devastating humor has captured the hearts of more than 16 million readers. The France Télévisions teams met its author, Antoine Dole. Since creating this endearing little monster, the author has gotten into the habit of hiding behind a pseudonym: Mr Tan. As success grew, we had to come out of the woods and remove the mask.
An ally for victims of school bullying
“Adèle was born when I was 14. It’s a character that I created after three years of school violence. I was told every day that I should commit suicide, that I was worthless, not interesting. And so, I said to myself: ‘I’ll take anything that seems the opposite of who I am’“, says the author.
20 albums later, this paper double who never gives up has become the best ally of victims of school bullying, almost a million of whom suffer mockery and intimidation. With her crazy ideas, her excesses and her fragilities, Mortelle Adèle nevertheless speaks to everyone, and assures booksellers of sales worthy of Harry Potter. Antoine Dole takes care of the scenarios. On the illustration side, it is Diane Le Feyer who draws Mortelle Adèle.
