Mars

In this French-published manga series from Panini, Fuyumi Soryo crafts a tense sci-fi drama set on a terraformed Mars, where a young woman's arrival at a research colony triggers a chain of political intrigue and ecological mystery. Running for 16 issues between 2003 and 2005, the series blends hard science fiction with character-driven storytelling, exploring themes of isolation and survival against a vividly realized Martian backdrop. Soryo’s distinctive, delicate art style brings a unique emotional depth to the harsh, red landscape, making it a standout entry in the early 2000s European manga landscape.
