Glénat Éditions

Their products include comic albums and manga in France, Benelux, and in the past Spain; it was founded by Jacques Glénat.

[3] Jacques Glénat started his comics fanzine Schtroumpf (the French, original, title of The Smurfs) in 1969, when he was still a student.

But the next few years saw Glénat move more away from the traditional juvenile Franco-Belgian comics and more towards the graphic novel, with an emphasis on their successful historical series by François Bourgeon and André Juillard.

On 5 October 2011, yielded 100% of the capital of Glénat España to Joan Navarro and Félix Sabaté, the two heads of the former subsidiary.

Apart from translating and distributing the original Glénat productions, these regional companies also produce their own content and specializations.

The company head office is in central Grenoble,[5][6] in the former Convent of St. Cecilia, a 17th-century building which previously hosted a theater.
