About the series
A sweeping French sci-fi epic that began its English-language run with Daedalus in 2008, Aquablue follows the struggle of a young man raised by the native aquatic people of the ocean world Aquablue as he defends his adopted home from corporate exploitation. The series is most strongly associated with writer Thierry Cailleteau and artist Olivier Vatine, whose lush, dynamic artwork brings the planet's vibrant underwater landscapes and high-stakes conflicts to life. Across its nineteen issues, the story blends ecological themes with classic adventure, making it a standout entry in European science-fiction comics.
