GRUISSAN'S COMICS FESTIVAL
(May 2006)
The town of Gruissan is located east of Narbonne, on the Mediterranean. Each year
in May, it holds a small comics festival and, this year, organizer Eric Mattei had invited us to talk about comics.
The old town of Gruissan lies in the shadow of an old medieval castle.
