About the series
In De strijd om het vuur (2013–2016), Daedalus presents a three-issue prehistoric saga that reimagines humanity's earliest struggles through a stark, naturalistic lens. French artist Emmanuel Roudier, the series' most frequent visual hand, grounds the story in detailed, research-driven depictions of Paleolithic life, focusing on survival, conflict, and the primal quest for fire. This compact but immersive series stands out for its anthropological ambition within the European comics tradition, offering a raw, wordless narrative that prioritizes atmosphere and visual storytelling over dialogue.
