Classic Comics #9 from March 1943 contains an adaptation of Victor Hugo's Les Misérables.
Les Misérables is a historical fiction novel by Victor Hugo, first published in 1862.
The novel is about the progressive redemption of former convict Jean Valjean, the miserable childhood of Cosette and her relationship with Marius, the sacrifices of Fantine, Théneardier and Javert.
"I have just destroyed human fate", Hugo wrote, "I condemn slavery, I drive out misery, I teach ignorance, I treat disease, I make the night clear, I hate hatred. That is what I am and this is the reason why I have written Les Misérables".
