Les Orphelins de la tour #1

Two figures stand at the edge of a crumbling rooftop high above a ruined cityscape — a small child in a yellow cap and a taller, cloaked figure leaning on a staff, pointing toward the horizon — and the image alone speaks volumes about survival, wonder, and the unknown world below. This opening volume of Les Orphelins de la Tour, subtitled Théo, sets a quietly haunting tone against Delcourt's 2007 publication, with Blondel, Allart, and Citromax crafting a post-apocalyptic tableau that feels both desolate and strangely full of possibility. If you're drawn to stories of small figures in vast, broken worlds, this first chapter is a compelling place to begin.
