Sambre

Set against the backdrop of the French Revolution, this two-issue series from Glénat Italia is a visually lush, emotionally intense historical drama penned by Balac and Yslaire, with Yslaire also providing the evocative artwork. The story centers on a forbidden, tragic romance between a young aristocrat and a commoner, exploring themes of class, passion, and societal upheaval. Though brief, Sambre is remembered for its painterly style and its raw, operatic take on a classic period of change.
