Epileptic (L'Ascension du Haut Mal)

David B. (Pierre-François Beauchard) · L'Association (France) / Pantheon (US) · 1996–2004 (France) / 2005 (US single-volume)

The L'Association multi-volume French edition is the true first. The 2005 Pantheon single volume is the first complete English edition ('first thus'). An earlier partial English edition, 'Epileptic 1' (Book One only), was issued in softcover by Fantagraphics in 2002 and so precedes the Pantheon volume for that portion of the text; Pantheon is the first complete-in-English appearance.
