Abstract
Un Monde un Peu Meilleur is a stretched fac-simile edition of Louis Trondheim’s 48CC book. The unsolicited, unauthorized and unwelcomed pirate version that sells in the same book circuits than the original version, revisits with a bitter eye the claims to which the publisher Association didn’t live up to: That the question of format in comics is a political arena that overrides mere complicity of interests bringing together paper bulk orders, industrial workflow standardization, optimal formats and economies of scale, reader attention spans, shelf space and collectors’ best practices.
