Apache Junction

Apache Junction is a gritty Western crime series from the French publisher BD Must, launched in 2017 and ongoing with three issues to date. Set in the lawless frontier of the titular Arizona town, it follows a lone wanderer caught between outlaws and corrupt authorities. The series is most associated with writer/artist Jean-Claude Cassini, whose stark, atmospheric art and lean storytelling evoke classic spaghetti Westerns. It matters as a modern European take on the genre, emphasizing moral ambiguity and survival over heroic tropes.
