Blast

Manu Larcenet’s Blast is a stark, four-issue psychological drama published by Dargaud from 2009 to 2014, following a man’s obsessive quest for a transcendent, almost mystical experience. Written and drawn entirely by Larcenet, the series delves into the dark, introspective journey of its protagonist as he recounts his past to a police psychiatrist. Known for its raw, expressive art and unflinching examination of alienation and meaning, Blast stands as a powerful, intimate work in European comics.
