About the series
In this 2016–2017 four-issue miniseries from Titan Comics, writers Serge Lehman, Fabrice Colin, and Edward Gauvin, alongside artist Gess, reimagine a pulp-infused 1930s Europe where superhuman beings—the "Chimeras"—emerge from a secret history of science and mysticism. The series blends alternate history with superhero mythos, centering on a shadowy conspiracy that ties together figures like the Mysterious Knight and the Master of the World. Distinguished by Gess's lush, atmospheric artwork and a narrative steeped in European folklore and early 20th-century genre fiction, The Chimera Brigade offers a thoughtful, adult take on the origins of the superhuman.
