Congo 40

In the lush, untamed heart of a fictional Africa, Congo 40 launched in 1990 from Carlsen Comics as a single, self-contained European graphic novel. Crafted by the Belgian duo Éric Warnauts (writer/artist) and Antoinette Gittinger (writer), with additional art by Raives, it is a moody, atmospheric tale of colonial-era intrigue and personal obsession. Though brief in its run, this standalone story stands out for its painterly art and psychological depth, marking a distinctive entry in the tradition of Franco-Belgian adventure comics.
