Borgia

Borgia, published by Faraos Cigarer from 2005 to 2010, is a compact four-issue miniseries that brings a darkly atmospheric, historically grounded lens to the infamous Renaissance dynasty. The series is most associated with writer and artist Alejandro Jodorowsky and Milo Manara, whose lush, dramatic artwork captures the opulence and corruption of the Borgia papacy with unflinching intensity. It matters as a notable European graphic novel that blends meticulous period detail with the creators' signature surreal and provocative storytelling, offering a gripping, adult-oriented portrait of power and intrigue.
