Outre-Tombe Hors-Série

A five-issue French-language horror anthology series from Elvifrance, Outre-Tombe Hors-Série (1972–1973) offered a grimly imaginative spin on the macabre, distinct from the publisher's better-known Outre-Tombe line. While the core series focused on classic terror, this "hors-série" (special edition) format allowed for more experimental and visually striking tales of the supernatural. Though its run was brief, the series is remembered for its atmospheric, often unsettling art and its place in the broader wave of European horror comics of the early 1970s. It remains a cult curiosity for fans of vintage, pre-Code-style frights from across the Atlantic.
