The Tenth

In 1999, Panini France launched The Tenth, an 11-issue sci-fi series that reimagined the Ten Commandments as a superpowered conspiracy. The story follows a man who discovers he is one of ten individuals imbued with the mystical abilities of the biblical laws, drawing him into a clandestine war between ancient forces. Best known for the collaborative work of writers and artists like Jean-Pierre Pécau and Igor Kordey, the series stands as a distinctive example of late-1990s European comics blending theological thriller with superhero action. Its ambitious, high-concept premise and striking visual style made it a cult favorite among fans of mature, narrative-driven genre comics.
