Under

In this two-issue series from Le Lombard (2010–2011), writer Christophe Bec and artist Stefano Raffaele plunge readers into a claustrophobic, atmospheric thriller set in the depths of the ocean. The story follows a team of scientists and explorers trapped in an underwater research station, where isolation and unknown forces begin to unravel their sanity and survival. Though brief, Under stands as a taut, visually striking exercise in psychological horror from the European comic tradition, showcasing Bec's knack for high-concept tension and Raffaele's moody, detailed artwork.
