Idoles #1

Part of Delcourt's Néopolis line, this 2005 French sci-fi series launches with a cover that immediately signals something sharp and unsettling — a hulking, scarred figure fires a gun on what appears to be a live television set, cameras and crew visible around him, while onlookers watch from the foreground. The creative team of Gabella, Emem, and Lou frames the collision of violence and spectacle with a cool, teal-tinted palette that feels both stylish and ominous. Pour Toi, Public — "For You, the Public" — is a subtitle that lands with quiet menace, making this first volume a compelling proposition for fans of cyberpunk and media-critique storytelling.
