Description
A titanic battle against a team of super-good guys, a deadly curse, tango lessons, and a descent into Hell . . . Chance, Xiong Mao, and Shadow certainly didn't expect this when they signed up for Hero University! And to think they're only first-year students . . .
At a time when the rivalry between Saint-Ange's school and the Facility of Extracurricular Academic Heroism (FEAH) has never been stronger, they'll not only have to fight to stay alive but also do everything they can to boost their popularity! Especially since, in the eyes of the world, it seems like they're the bad guys in the story . . .
At FEAH, students Chance, Xiong Mao, and Shadow will discover the joys of university life, the ruthless competition between students, sadistic professors, and the stress of exams. At this university, special individuals learn how to manage their powers as well as their public image, both necessary to obtain a superhero license . . . Whether through the use of supernatural magic or special genetic features, the students have a lot of history to overcome, both personal and social.

Person
Florent Maudoux is a French comic book creator born in 1979 known for blending manga, European comics, and pop culture into bold, genre-defying narratives. A graduate of the Gobelins animation school, he began his career in 3D animation and video game design before turning to comics, where his flair for dynamic storytelling and visual experimentation found full expression. He's best known for Freaks' Squeele, a cult hit published by Ankama under Label 619, which follows misfit students at a superhero academy, mixing humor, action, and emotional depth. Maudoux expanded the universe with spin-offs like Funerailles, Rouge, and Masiko, each exploring different facets of his richly imagined world. His work is deeply influenced by role-playing games, Hong Kong cinema, and classical art, resulting in stories that are as playful as they are profound.
