About the series
A lush, three-volume historical fantasy from Delcourt, Pavillon Rouge (2001–2003) reimagines the tumultuous fall of the Ming Dynasty through a supernatural lens. The story follows a young woman whose fate becomes entwined with a legendary sword and the secrets of the titular red pavilion. Written by Jean Dufaux with evocative art by Martin Jamar, the series blends political intrigue, romance, and Chinese folklore into a compact, atmospheric saga. Its concise six-issue run offers a distinctive, creator-driven vision that stands out in early-2000s European comics.
