Aria

A fantasy-adventure series from Belgian publisher Le Lombard, Aria ran for fifteen issues between 1982 and 1992. The series is most closely associated with writer-artist Michel Weyland, who handled the majority of the art and co-wrote with Jean-Luc Vernal and Nadine Weyland. It stands out as a long-running European comic that centers on a strong, independent heroine in a mythic, sword-and-sorcery setting.
