About the series
Sylvain Runberg and Jean Charles Poupard’s Le Chant des Runes (2016–2020, Glénat) is a four-issue comic series that reimagines Norse mythology through the lens of a gritty, modern fantasy thriller. Runberg’s script and Poupard’s atmospheric art follow a detective investigating a series of brutal murders tied to ancient runic magic, blending crime noir with mythic horror. Its concise, self-contained story stands out for its tight integration of folklore and procedural mystery.
