About the series
In De loopgraaf, a single-issue series published by Daedalus in 2008, artist Christophe Marchetti brings a stark, intimate vision to the First World War's Western Front. This Belgian comic strips away grand narratives, focusing instead on the claustrophobic, mud-choked reality of trench life through Marchetti's expressive, gritty linework. A concise yet potent entry in war comics, it stands as a focused character study born from the region's deep historical memory.
