Den

Richard Corben’s Den (1984–present) is a hallucinatory fantasy epic from Catalan Communications, following the adventures of the young man Den as he is transported to the savage, dreamlike world of Neverwhere. Written and illustrated entirely by Corben, the series showcases his signature lush, muscular painting style and visceral storytelling, originally unfolding across two issues in the mid-1980s. A cornerstone of Corben’s career, Den matters for its unflinching blend of sword-and-sorcery, body horror, and erotica, pushing the boundaries of independent comics with its raw, painterly ambition.
