Aâma

Over four volumes from 2011 to 2014, Swiss cartoonist Frederik Peeters crafted Aâma, a self-contained science fiction saga published by Gallimard. The series follows a man named Christophe who, after a mysterious accident, finds himself on a distant planet with a strange, sentient substance called Aâma, exploring themes of identity, memory, and the nature of consciousness. Peeters’ lush, expressive artwork and his layered, philosophical narrative make this a distinctive and quietly influential work in European comics.
