Chimères

In this French series from Vents d'Ouest, a disgraced geneticist creates a hybrid creature—part human, part animal—that escapes into the wild, forcing him to confront the consequences of his ambition. Published between 2003 and 2007, Chimères is a compact, three-issue story that blends science fiction with moral inquiry, exploring themes of identity and responsibility. The series is best known for its atmospheric art and tight, character-driven narrative, offering a thoughtful take on the classic "mad scientist" trope.
