About the series
In the late 1980s, French writer-artist Lucien De Gieter brought his beloved European adventure hero to American readers via Pocket Books, with Papyrus (1989–1991). This six-issue series follows the young Egyptian warrior and his magical sword in a vividly rendered ancient world, blending mythology, action, and historical fantasy. Known for its lush, detailed artwork and fast-paced storytelling, the series introduced U.S. audiences to a classic of Franco-Belgian comics, offering a distinctive alternative to superhero fare.
