Salammbô

A bold, unfinished adaptation of Gustave Flaubert’s epic novel, this 2010 Glénat series immerses readers in the brutal, sensual world of ancient Carthage. While only a single issue was released, the project was notable for its ambitious scope and the striking, painterly art of Philippe Druillet, a legendary French comics artist known for his psychedelic, baroque style. This lone installment remains a tantalizing fragment of a larger vision, offering a visually intoxicating glimpse into a classic story of war, love, and destruction.
