Clockwerx

In this two-issue series from Les Humanoïdes Associés (2008–2009), writers Jason Henderson and Tony Salvaggio team with artist Jean-Baptiste Hostache to tell a taut, self-contained steampunk thriller. The story follows a clockwork-powered world where a brilliant inventor's creation is stolen, forcing a desperate chase through a meticulously rendered, gear-driven cityscape. Clockwerx stands out as a compact, visually striking example of European comics' willingness to blend genre adventure with intricate world-building.
