Mandragora

In this compact two-issue series from Daedalus, writer Sylvain Cordurié and artist Marco Santucci craft a sinister tale of alchemy and forbidden knowledge set in Renaissance Italy. The story follows a mysterious figure who wields the power of the legendary mandrake root, blurring the lines between science and sorcery. A moody, atmospheric European comic that packs a complete, self-contained arc into its brief run.
