Matière fantôme #3

A striking figure peers out from a dark oval void — arms crossed, expression unreadable — while pale liquid spills and fractures across the floor below, creating an atmosphere that is both dreamlike and quietly unsettling. This third volume in the Matière fantôme series, labeled delta among the Greek-letter chapters, continues what Douay and Fléchard have built into one of the more visually distinctive science-fiction series in the Empreintes Dupuis catalog. The cool, near-monochromatic palette and surreal staging make this 2008 album a genuinely compelling entry in contemporary French-language comics.
