About the series
In this two-issue miniseries from Delcourt, the 2018–2019 Dark King of Kings reimagines the Arthurian legend through a dark fantasy lens, exploring the rise of a brutal, tyrannical monarch. The series is known for its lush, atmospheric art and a moody, revisionist take on Camelot, stripping away chivalric romance to focus on power, corruption, and the bloody cost of kingship. A concise, visually striking entry in French comics, it offers a stark counterpoint to more traditional Arthurian tales.
