I'd like to buy a French comic I can't find online from any store that sells French Bande dessinée (Amazon, fnac or anything else) and then ask for a refund so I can keep a nice *.cbz or *.cbr file on my hard drive.

Any guide out there on how to properly de-DRM comics? I'd like something easy if possible I'm tech and computer savvy enough but not "coding" savvy

Unrelated but have you looked on Anna’s Archive? They have a bunch of Bande dessinée on there that may be what you're looking for.

Yeah, I've looked everywhere but if you'd like to look yourself it's "Saint-elme" tome 5 (volume 5) by Lehmann and Peeters. All 4 first books are on Anna's and elsewhere but tome 5 was published fairly recently (January) and a French forum sharing bande dessinées has a "6 months rule" about sharing newly published works (honestly I don't understand why but who am I to discuss their rules) so it will be available at some point but since vol 5 is the last one, I want to read the end now.

Thanks anyway :)
