Totem

Claudia Sandberg, Nicolas Wouters, and Mikaël Ross collaborate on this single-issue comic from avant-verlag, first published in 2016. The story follows a young boy living on a remote Arctic island who stumbles upon a mysterious creature, setting the stage for a quiet, atmospheric tale of unexpected connection. Ross’s expressive, muted artwork grounds the narrative in a stark, beautiful landscape, making Totem a distinctive, self-contained entry in the publisher’s catalog.
