About the series
A short-lived but visually striking two-issue series from French publisher Soleil, Babel (2005–2007) presents a dark, atmospheric reimagining of the Tower of Babel myth, exploring themes of language, ambition, and divine punishment. The series is primarily associated with writer and artist Jean-Pierre Pécau and artist Fred Vignaux, whose detailed, moody artwork grounds the biblical allegory in a gritty, ancient-world setting. Though brief, it stands as a compact, thought-provoking entry in Soleil's catalog of mature, creator-driven fantasy.
