Métal Hurlant #31

In the quiet stillness of a forgotten village, a young woman walking a dusty path stumbles upon a strange, glowing light—floating without a source. When she brings it to her neighbors and the village church leader, the simple act sets off a chain of reactions that ripple through the community, testing belief, fear, and the fragile line between wonder and superstition.

In the sun-scorched reaches east of Karakulak, Stéphane journeys through a land thick with secrets, unaware that a hidden tube carries a danger he cannot yet comprehend. When he learns Yves is somewhere in Turkey, he sets out to find him—only to be forced to halt at the cursed village of Karakulak, where something ancient and unsettling lingers in the air. With Alice by his side, Stéphane must unravel the mystery of the village before the past consumes them both.
