Les amants de Shamhat

In Les amants de Shamhat (2021–present, Futuropolis), this single-issue French comic reimagines the ancient Mesopotamian epic through a modern lens, focusing on the intimate bond between the goddess Ishtar and the mortal shepherd Dumuzi. The series, rooted in myth and history, explores themes of love, power, and mortality with lush, evocative artwork. Though brief, it stands out for its poetic, scholarly approach to one of humanity's oldest stories.
