Jeremiah

Hermann’s bleak, post-apocalyptic Jeremiah (1982–1986) follows two young survivors, Jeremiah and Kurdy, navigating a devastated America where adults have been wiped out by a mysterious plague. Published by Novedi, this 12-issue series is a masterwork of European graphic storytelling, with Hermann serving as both writer and artist to craft a gritty, wandering road narrative. Its stark realism and focus on human resilience over superhuman heroics set it apart in the genre, influencing countless dystopian comics to come.
