La Brigade chimérique

In 2012, French publisher L'Atalante launched La Brigade chimérique, a single-issue comic crafted by writers Fabrice Colin and Serge Lehman with art by Stéphane Gess. This standalone volume stands as a key work of modern European retro-futurism, reimagining the lost super-science and doomed heroes of early 20th-century pulp fiction. Its concise, self-contained story matters for distilling an entire mythos of forgotten French heroes into a single, evocative narrative.
