Perceval

A short-lived but distinctive series from the Mon Journal line, Perceval (1959–1960) reimagined the Arthurian legend through a modern, adventure-oriented lens across seven issues. The series is best remembered for its striking, atmospheric artwork by the French artist René Bastard, whose detailed style lent a mythic gravity to the knight’s quests. Though brief, it stands as a notable early example of European comics blending classic folklore with serialized storytelling.
