About the series
Over six issues from 2012 to 2017, Delcourt's Aliénor, la Légende noire reexamines the life of Eleanor of Aquitaine through a dark, mythic lens. Writers Arnaud Delalande and Simona Mogavino, alongside artist Carlos Gómez, craft a lush historical drama that strips away romanticized legends to explore the political cunning and personal cost of one of the Middle Ages' most formidable queens. This series matters for its unflinching portrait of power, ambition, and the shadows that trail a woman who defied her era.
