De tijger ontwaakt

In the 2021 Dupuis graphic novel De tijger ontwaakt, writer Serge Le Tendre and artist Olivier TaDuc launch a standalone story of simmering tension and sudden violence. This single-issue comic follows a man whose quiet life is shattered by the return of a figure from his past, forcing him to confront the predator he once was. TaDuc’s expressive, atmospheric art grounds Le Tendre’s taut, character-driven thriller in a world where the line between civilization and savagery is razor-thin. A compact, potent work from two acclaimed European talents, it demonstrates the power of a complete story told in a single, unflinching volume.
