About the series
In this three-issue French miniseries from Delcourt (2007–2009), a team of scientists uncovers a hidden Nazi base in the Arctic, only to find it harbors a secret weapon tied to the mythical Hydras of Ares. Writer and artist team up to blend Cold War paranoia with pulp adventure, delivering a taut, self-contained thriller that explores the enduring legacy of wartime experiments. A tight, atmospheric tale from the European comics scene, it stands as a concise example of the genre's ability to fuse history and speculative fiction.
