About the series
In 1987, Zenda brought Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ seminal superhero deconstruction to a French audience, with Jean-Patrick Manchette contributing to the adaptation. Over six issues, this series reimagined the caped crusader as a flawed, psychologically complex figure in an alternate Cold War America, challenging the very foundations of the genre. Its intricate narrative and innovative use of the comic form made it a landmark work that remains essential reading for understanding the medium’s potential.
