Washita

In this taut, five-issue Western series from French publisher Dargaud, a lone rider pursues a brutal quest for vengeance across the lawless plains of the 19th-century American frontier. The story is anchored by the stark, expressive artwork of artist Jean-Michel Ponzio, whose cinematic style brings the harsh beauty and violence of the era to life. Written by Patrick Cothias, the series strips the Western genre down to its essential themes of justice, loss, and survival. Washita stands as a lean, atmospheric addition to the European bande dessinée tradition, offering a modern take on classic cowboy mythology.
