Ellna: Ättling

Ellna: Ättling (2017–present, Epix) is a single-issue Swedish comic that introduces a young girl named Ellna, who discovers she is the descendant of a legendary hero. Published by the independent Swedish label Epix, the series is associated with writer and artist Johan Lindqvist, whose atmospheric storytelling grounds a mythic premise in intimate, everyday details. This debut issue matters as a quietly ambitious entry in contemporary Nordic comics, blending folklore with modern coming-of-age themes.
