Sacrifice to the King of Beasts

In this German fantasy-horror series from Carlsen Comics, a young woman is offered as a sacrificial bride to a monstrous king, only to discover that the beastly ruler and his court are far more complex—and dangerous—than the legends suggest. Running 15 issues from 2018 to 2022, the story blends dark romance, political intrigue, and creature lore as its heroine navigates a world where survival depends on understanding the true nature of power. The series is notable for its lush, atmospheric art and its subversion of classic fairy-tale sacrifice tropes, earning a dedicated readership in the European comics market.
