Golem

A haunting, standalone graphic novel from Italian publisher Bao Publishing, Golem (2014–present) reimagines the classic Jewish legend of a clay protector in a modern, urban setting. The series is most associated with writer and artist LRNZ, whose atmospheric, painterly style grounds the myth in a gritty, noir-inflected world. Though only a single issue has been released, its thoughtful blend of folklore and contemporary anxiety has marked it as a distinctive, quietly influential work in European comics.
