About the series
Over three decades and seventeen albums, Glénat’s Balade au bout du monde followed the solitary wanderer Arthis Jolinon across a richly detailed, often melancholy world. Written primarily by Pierre Makyo, the series was visually defined by a rotating team of artists—including Laurent Vicomte, Michel Faure, and Laval NG Man Kwong—each bringing a distinct, painterly style to its quiet, introspective journeys. A landmark of French adult-oriented fantasy, it remains a touchstone for its subtle storytelling and atmospheric art.
