Astrid

A quiet but striking debut from French publisher Soleil, Astrid (2004–present) introduces a self-contained, one-issue story that sets a contemplative tone for the series. Though brief in its initial outing, the title establishes a distinctive visual and narrative identity, hinting at the atmospheric, character-driven work that would define its creator's approach. This slim volume matters as an early marker of Soleil's commitment to European fantasy with a personal, meditative edge.
