Victus

Carles Santamaría and Cesc F. Dalmases brought this three-issue series to life for Dark Dragon Books in 2020–2021, blending historical drama with supernatural horror. Set against the backdrop of the Napoleonic Wars, it follows a Spanish soldier who makes a chilling pact to survive the battlefield, only to find his humanity slipping away with each grim bargain. Dalmases’ moody, atmospheric artwork grounds the fantastical premise in grim, visceral reality. A taut, self-contained mini-series that stands as a memorable entry in European historical horror comics.
