Beowulf

In this epic reimagining of the ancient poem, Beowulf is cast as a godlike being who descends to a war-torn medieval world to battle monstrous forces. Published by Delcourt and launched in 2008, the series draws on the talents of writer Xavier Dorison and artist Mathieu Lauffray to craft a dark, mythic take on the classic hero. Its single issue established a visually striking, atmospheric foundation for a saga that remains ongoing.
