Ravian

In the early 1980s, Pierre Christin and Jean-Claude Mézières, the celebrated team behind Valérian, brought their signature blend of science fiction and political commentary to Oberon and Dargaud Benelux with Ravian. This eight-issue series follows a lone, enigmatic protagonist navigating a dystopian, hyper-capitalist future, offering a sharp, visually striking critique of societal control. While a distinct work from their more famous series, Ravian showcases the duo’s masterful world-building and remains a compelling, if lesser-known, entry in European sci-fi comics.
