La saga de Bas de Cuir (2017–present) spans five issues, following the frontiersman Natty Bumppo across 18th-century America with a focus on his encounters with Native peoples and the wilderness. The series is notable for its expressive, painterly art style and its thoughtful, visually rich retelling of a classic of American literature through a European comics lens.
