About the series
From 2003 to 2007, French publisher Soleil released a haunting three-issue series steeped in Breton folklore, centered on the Ankou, the skeletal figure of death in Celtic mythology. Written and illustrated by the celebrated duo of Jean-Luc Istin and Stéphane Bileau, this compact run weaves a dark, atmospheric tale of the supernatural that stands as a distinctive entry in Soleil's rich catalog of European fantasy comics.
