Zone d'ombre

In 2005, Delcourt launched Zone d'Ombre, a single-issue comic that stands as a stark, self-contained crime tale. The project is most notably defined by the gritty, expressive pencils of John Romita Jr., whose work here brings a distinct visual weight to the story's shadowy, noir-infused atmosphere. Though brief in its run, the series is a compelling snapshot of Romita Jr.'s ability to craft tense, character-driven drama outside the superhero mainstream.
