Lucien

In the late 2000s, writer and artist Audie launched Lucien, an 11-issue series from an independent publisher that follows a young man navigating the surreal and often dangerous underbelly of a fantastical city. Known for its moody, expressionistic art and a narrative that blends urban fantasy with psychological horror, the series explores themes of identity, memory, and the cost of hidden knowledge. Lucien stands out as a cult-favorite indie gem, showcasing Audie’s singular vision in a tightly crafted, self-contained story that rewards patient readers.
