What’s Tephlon Funk?

It’s a Bande Dessinée series created by Stephane Metayer about a teenage girl from Queensbridge, who’s entire life turns upside down. It’s heavily inspired by both Hip–Hop & Anime, the words Tephlon Funk!® means to be strong and stand out. We really wanted to create a great, authentic and unique story about New York City set in the 90‘s.

A big love letter to all the 5 Boroughs. Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and Staten Island. This is more than just a series, it’s a cultural movement. Here at tephlonfunk.com you’ll discover incredible artwork, comics, music and exclusive merchandise. We’d like to thank everyone for all the continued support and hope you all enjoy it.
