Médée

In this three-issue series from Casterman (2009–2011), the myth of Medea is reimagined through a modern, psychological lens, focusing on the tragic sorceress's inner turmoil and her violent quest for agency. Writer and artist team up to strip away the ancient epic's spectacle, grounding the story in raw emotion and stark, expressive artwork. This concise, intense arc matters for its fresh, character-driven take on a classic figure, offering a compelling study of betrayal and revenge without the usual mythological grandeur.
