Paquebot #[nn]
This volume collects the complete story of Paquebot, a 1999 series published by Dargaud. The narrative follows the crew and passengers aboard a transatlantic ocean liner, exploring their intertwined lives and secrets during a voyage. Created by writer Jean-Claude Forest and artist Philippe Druillet, the work blends adventure with a touch of surrealism, characteristic of both creators' styles.
In the quiet tension of a postwar ocean crossing, the luxurious liner Horizon sails toward the Far East, carrying a diverse and uneasy crew of passengers—soldiers, spies, pilgrims, and dreamers—each hiding their own secrets. Written by Pierre Christin and illustrated with haunting precision by Annie Goetzinger, Paquebot unfolds in a world where every glance and silence carries weight, and the sea itself feels like a witness. The cover, also by Goetzinger, captures the ship’s elegant isolation beneath a sky heavy with unspoken stories.
