Lotus de Jade

In the early 2000s, French publisher Nucléa (later Nucléa²) released Lotus de Jade, a three-issue comic series blending martial arts fantasy with a mystical, Eastern-inspired aesthetic. The story follows a young woman named Lotus, who inherits a powerful jade amulet and must navigate a world of ancient secrets and dangerous adversaries. Though brief, the series is remembered for its lush, detailed artwork and its place within the small but passionate European indie comics scene of the era.
