Synopsis
Love, humor, and powerlifting collide in Colossal, a massively successful international Webtoon now presented in print, about a young aristocrat who’s about to discover that the heart may be the strongest muscle of all!
Jade, a young French noblewoman, has a problem. Her parents expect her to marry a rich prince to save their dwindling family fortune. But Jade doesn’t want to fall in line or in love—all she wants to do is pump iron and get. Those. Gains!
Jade’s obsession with powerlifting and getting strong is at odds with the image of a delicate flower that society expects from her. When—in a fit of rage—she sends a fellow high-society teen, obnoxious pretty boy Nathaniel, flying through a buffet table during a ball, it looks like Jade’s secret may be out! But before a scandal erupts, the quick-thinking teen comes up with a brilliant excuse: Love made her do it!
Now, Jade finds herself in a dizzying courtship dance between spoiled Nathaniel; Alexander, a stable hand she wants to get lifting tips from; Eloise, a mean girl hiding a soft heart; and Simon, Nathaniel’s insufferable best friend. Can Jade keep her secret and learn that strength isn’t only measured by how much one can deadlift?
Silly, heartfelt, and full of surprises, Colossal is a young adult rom-com graphic novel with a shojo manga twist perfect for readers who loved Cursed Princess Club, Heartstopper, and True Beauty.

About the Author
Rutile was born in Mauritius in 1985 and penned the scripts for over a dozen comics published in France. The co-creation of the webtoon Colossal with Diane Truc is her most commercial success yet. You’ll find Diane Truc either holed up in an animation studio, fired up during a signing session, or rolling around in a pro-wrestling ring. After graduating from the famous French animation school Gobelins, she started working as an animator for four years before embracing the webtoon artist life. After winning the 2020 Webtoon Original Contest, she and Rutile worked together for two years before their work was picked up and published in France through Jungle Editions. Since then, she continues hopping between the animation, comics, and wrestling worlds, and doesn’t plan on stopping.
