These Savage Shores

A single-issue comic from French publisher Bragelonne, These Savage Shores (2020–present) reimagines the colonial encounter as a clash of monsters, where European vampires arrive on the shores of 18th-century India to find a land already teeming with ancient, bloodthirsty beings. The series is notable for its lush, atmospheric art and a premise that inverts the typical vampire narrative, positioning the Western undead as invaders in a world of Indian folklore and mythology. Though brief, it stands as a compact, evocative horror-fantasy that explores themes of empire and predation through a supernatural lens.
