About the series
In 2022, Delcourt launched Le Fléau, a four-issue comic series that reimagines a classic French science-fiction premise through a modern, ecological lens. The story follows a small community as it confronts an insidious, nature-driven catastrophe, blending survival horror with social commentary. While the creative team is not widely known outside of French comics, the series has garnered attention for its atmospheric art and tight, suspenseful plotting. Le Fléau stands as a concise, self-contained entry in contemporary European genre comics, offering a fresh take on the "plague" narrative without relying on familiar American tropes.
