The Summit

A seven-issue miniseries published by Egmont Ehapa from 2007 to 2009, The Summit is a self-contained European comic that blends high-altitude adventure with mystery. The story follows a group of climbers on a treacherous expedition, where survival becomes secondary to uncovering secrets buried in the ice. Created by a team of German talent, the series stands out for its atmospheric art and taut, character-driven plot that avoids typical superhero tropes. It remains a notable example of mid-2000s European genre comics, prized for its focused, suspenseful storytelling.
