Climax

A four-issue miniseries from Dargaud, Climax (2008–2009) is a taut, self-contained thriller that explores the escalating tensions within a small, isolated community. The story hinges on a single, catastrophic event that forces its characters to confront their deepest fears and hidden agendas. Written and illustrated by a single creative team, the series is a masterclass in controlled pacing and atmospheric dread, building to a devastating conclusion. It stands as a potent example of the concise, European-style suspense comic.
