If the show is renewed for another season, it will likely tackle volumes three and four. This means that viewers will travel to France with Charlie and Nick. They will also see them struggle to make their relationship public.
Hopefully, we can see these events come to life on the small screen. Ideally, Netflix will adapt all of the graphic novels, including the upcoming fifth. Only time will tell if this actually happens.
