Adabana

A haunting psychological thriller from Dargaud, Adabana (2022–present) follows a young woman's mysterious disappearance in a small Japanese town, unraveling a web of buried secrets and unreliable memories across its three-issue run. The series is defined by its atmospheric, minimalist artwork and a narrative that blurs the line between reality and delusion. Created by a single artist-writer, it has drawn attention for its quiet, unsettling exploration of grief and isolation. Adabana matters as a compact, self-contained work that proves a limited series can deliver a deeply immersive, novelistic experience.
