About the series
In Les Ombres du Styx (2011–2014), Delcourt published a taut three-issue miniseries that reimagines the myth of Charon, the ferryman of the underworld, as a noir-infused thriller. The story follows a modern-day Charon, bound to his role, as he navigates a shadowy world of debt, violence, and ancient bargains on the banks of the Styx. This concise, atmospheric tale stands out for its moody art and tight plotting, offering a fresh, gritty take on a classic mythological figure within the European comics tradition.
