Les Icariades

A short-lived but visually striking French science-fantasy series from Editions Paquet, Les Icariades ran for three issues between 2001 and 2003. The story follows the Icariades, a lineage of winged beings, as they navigate a world of political intrigue and ancient prophecy. The series is noted for its lush, painterly art and its ambitious, if truncated, mythological scope.
