April 26, 1986, Chernobyl: the reactor core of the
nuclear power plant begins to melt. It is the greatest nuclear disaster of the
twentieth century. A cloud laden with radionuclides travels thousands of miles
in every direction, contaminating a populace unaware of its danger and who
cannot protect themselves. At that time, Emmanuel Lepage was 19 years old
watching and listening, incredulous, to the news on television.
22 years later, April 2008: he travels to
Chernobyl to report, both in writing and drawings, about the lives of the
survivors and their children living on the highly contaminated land. Upon making
the decision to travel there, Emmanuel has the feeling that he is defying death,
and when he finds himself on a train to Ukraine, where the old power station is
located, a question keeps popping up in his mind: What am I doing
here?
Emmanuel Lepage was born in 1966 in Saint-Brieuc. In 1983, the newspaper Ouest-France started featuring some of Lepage's illustrations. The same year, they also published the artist's first full album, La Fin du monde aura-t-elle lieu?, paid for out of Lepage's own pocket. Creator of the fanzine VOLAPUK, he had two albums of the Aventures de Kelvinn published by Ouest-France before he got his break with the major international comics publishers. In 1990, Le Lombard took on two volumes of L'Envoye, written by Georges Pernin, based on Huguette Carriere's novel. He and the writer Dieter then got the series Neve into Glenat. With his elegant drawing style and remarkable gift as a colorist, he got the recognition he deserved when he joined the prestigious "Aire Libre" collection at Dupuis in collaboration with the writer Anne Sibran. La Terre sans mal reconstructs the lives of Amazonian Indians with incredible authenticity, as perceived by a French ethnologist while World War II was raging in Europe. He later continued with Aire Libre with the striking two-part series Muchacho.
