-Schuiten: "//As I advanced with the Nauti-octopus, I had this image of a story, which could only be part of the Obscure Cities. I called Benoît Peeters. We agreed.//" ((See: https://actualitte.com/article/111596/auteurs/le-retour-du-capitaine-nemo-schuiten-et-peeters-ajoutent-un-tome-aux-cites-obscures)).
-[[en:dictionary:peeters-benoit|Benoît Peeters]], who writes the scenario, acknowledges that the work "//has a particular genesis. First of all, Verne has always been among the references and loves that François and I share. And while he was present in [[en:albums:l-enfant-penchee|L'Enfant Penchée]], within the cycle of the Obscure Cities we never wanted to approach him head-on//". ((See: https://actualitte.com/article/111596/auteurs/le-retour-du-capitaine-nemo-schuiten-et-peeters-ajoutent-un-tome-aux-cites-obscures)).
-In [[en:dictionary:2023|May 2023]] Benoît Peeters confirmed that the title will be **The Return of Captain Nemo**, instead of "The Mysterious Return of Captain Nemo ((See: https://www.facebook.com/francoisschuiten/posts/pfbid02q6Nc2Zb3zJdMrsshm8nkJXEP4cTfrbUK46rpxdXfsPeaNNcTS2EokEqpwU5ThDinl)).
-**The Return of Captain Nemo** was already mentioned in [[en:albums:l-echo-des-cites|L'Echo des Cités]] ((Read: [[en:albums:l-echo-des-cites|]])) and [[en:dictionary:desombres-augustin|Augustin Desombres]] made a fresco about this event in [[en:dictionary:1902|1902]] ((Read: [[en:albums:le-musee-a-desombres|]])).

-It will not be a comic book, but a text-image story, in the same way like [[en:albums:l-archiviste|L'Archiviste]] and [[en:albums:l-echo-des-cites|L'Echo des Cités]] ((Info Benoit Peeters)).
-"//The Return of Captain Nemo will not be foreign to comics. Simply, there will be no phylacteries,//" explains Peeters to Actualitte: "//By freeing himself from the constraints of a previous narrative, François was unleashed in the pleasure of drawing. And graphically achieves the best of his art// ” ((See: https://actualitte.com/article/111596/auteurs/le-retour-du-capitaine-nemo-schuiten-et-peeters-ajoutent-un-tome-aux-cites-obscures)).
-When the project started [[en:dictionary:schuiten-francois|François Schuiten]] has made six black and white drawings and [[en:dictionary:peeters-benoit|Benoît Peeters]] wrote the first texts around them. They will now work together on the remaining story. Laurent Durieux will help with the graphical aspects of the second part of the story.
-===== Story =====
-The idea is [[en:dictionary:nemo|Captain Nemo]] who crosses the seas, arrives towards the coast, goes up to the hortillonnages, discovers the [[en:dictionary:amiens-cathedral|cathedral]], then the link with the [[en:dictionary:perret-tower|Perret tower]].

-Schuiten: "For now, I have made several drawings. We will now write it with [[en:dictionary:peeters-benoit|Benoît Peeters]] to make it a new chapter of the Obscure Cities. Benoît has written a text around my first images, entitled **The mysterious return of Captain Nemo**. It will not be a comic book, rather an illustrated book.
-And it would start with images like the engravings of [[en:dictionary:verne-jules|Jules Verne]]'s books, then the Nauti-Octopus would take on a presence, a different texture, for which I will ask my friend [[en:dictionary:durieux-laurent|Laurent Durieux]]."

-Schuiten: "//The idea, for us, is to rebuild a dark City that has an anchor, the book would be linked to the Cities but also to a place. And the fact that this anchor is in the city of Jules Verne would be a beautiful story. A way of talking about the relationship between the imaginary and the real.//
-//A somewhat hybrid object, like sculpture itself... Because it is also a question of nourishing the history of sculpture, of ensuring that it is not only a work placed somewhere, but the result of a whole maturation. We must not leave the sculpture orphaned in its history.//" ((See: https://premium.courrier-picard.fr/id319555/article/2022-06-25/francois-schuiten-la-base-cest-la-reappropriation-de-cet-imaginaire-de-jules))

-===== Nauti-Poulpe =====
-Francois Schuiten worked with the sculptor Pierre Matter on the [[en:dictionary:gare-d-amiens|Octopus garden project in Amiens]]. Their first idea involved the rocket from Verne's story From the Earth to the Moon, but without the context of the story the sculpture was quite aggressive.
-Schuiten says "//And then I began to think about the Nautilus, the battle with the octopus and then the relationship between the two. And we had this idea with Pierre to move towards a form of hybridity.//
-//Today, we know that we will soon have transplants, avatars, therefore bridges between the animal and mechanics. And I think that if Jules Verne lived today, he would certainly have visions of it. With this Nauti-Poulpe, we try to find the object that can embody Jules Verne's presence in Amiens.//" ((See: https://premium.courrier-picard.fr/id319555/article/2022-06-25/francois-schuiten-la-base-cest-la-reappropriation-de-cet-imaginaire-de-jules))
