Kreuzzug

From 2008 to 2015, Splitter Verlag published Kreuzzug, a taut eight-issue comic series that plunges into the gritty, morally complex world of the Crusades. Written primarily by Jean Dufaux and Rossi Schreiber, with striking artwork by Philippe Xavier, the series eschews romanticized heroism for a raw, visceral exploration of faith, violence, and survival. Its concise run and focused creative team make it a distinctive, hard-edged historical drama in the European comics landscape.
