About the series
In this ambitious French sci-fi epic from Dargaud, Tenjin - Le Dieu du ciel (2017–2020) reimagines the myth of the Japanese sun goddess Amaterasu as a cosmic conflict spanning millennia. Over 14 issues, the series blends ancient Shinto legend with futuristic space opera, following a celestial being who descends to a war-torn Earth to reclaim her stolen power. The creative team—including writer Thierry Gloris and artist Eduardo Ocaña—crafts a visually lush, philosophically dense narrative where gods and humans clash over faith, technology, and identity. A standout in European comics for its ambitious fusion of mythology and science fiction, Tenjin offers a thoughtful, action-packed meditation on divinity in a modern world.
