Embla

Set in a fantastical Viking-inspired world, Embla (2022–present) is a Norwegian comic from Cappelen Damm that reimagines Norse mythology through a fresh, character-driven lens. The series centers on its titular heroine, a young woman navigating a realm of gods, monsters, and destiny, with a focus on identity and agency. Though still early in its run, the work has drawn attention for its atmospheric art and modern take on ancient legends.
