On Friendship

It's Hot Manga Javert time!

Pages 363–373 of the first English omnibus of Arai's manga introduce Javert and his suspicions of Madeleine (aided, in this case, by a seed planted by Fauchelevant), but it isn't until much, much later, in Volume 7 of the Japanese manga (presumably part of the 4th English omnibus eventually), on pages 6–11, that we see where he came from: "As he grew up, he thought that he was outside the pale of society, and he despaired of ever re-entering it. He observed that society unpardoningly excludes two classes of men,—those who attack it and those who guard it." This page below is where he made the choice whether to attack or to guard the society he was excluded from. (also featured: Javert's dogsona, as associated with him in the manga much in the same way that Valjean is shadowed by a lion)
