Metropolia #2

Two armed figures stride with quiet purpose through a desolate, scrub-covered wasteland, a colossal brutalist structure looming in the haze behind them — it's a striking opening image for Les Bordures Extérieures, the second volume of Duval and Römling's science-fiction series Metropolia. The muted, sickly green palette and crumbling gigastructure set a mood of grim, lived-in dystopia that feels utterly convincing. Published by Dargaud in 2026, this album promises the kind of immersive worldbuilding that rewards readers who like their futures thoroughly weathered.
