About this Collection

This volume collects the opening storyline of the classic Franco-Belgian thriller series XIII, originally serialized in the 1984 debut album Le Jour du soleil noir. It introduces an amnesiac protagonist washed ashore with no memory but a mysterious tattoo, launching a conspiracy-laden quest for identity across a shadowy political landscape. Crafted by writer Jean Van Hamme and artist William Vance, this edition marks the start of the original run published by Dargaud.
