Congo blanc

In Congo blanc (2024–present, Daniel Maghen), this single-issue comic from the French publisher Daniel Maghen launches a series set against the backdrop of colonial-era Africa. The story follows a white hunter whose moral compass is tested by the brutal realities of the ivory trade, a premise that immediately distinguishes it from more romanticized adventure tales. With its debut issue, the series establishes a reputation for lush, painterly artwork and a somber, revisionist take on the classic jungle narrative, signaling a thoughtful entry into the historical fiction genre.
