El Mercenario

In this Spanish sword-and-sorcery epic from Splitter Verlag, the enigmatic mercenary known as El Mercenario navigates a brutal, fantastical world of war, betrayal, and dark magic. Running for 14 issues between 2012 and 2014, the series is defined by the lush, painted artwork of Vicente Segrelles, who also co-wrote the saga alongside Oriol Schreibweis. A visually stunning and narrative-driven work, it stands as a late-career highlight for Segrelles, whose distinctive style had already made him a legend in European comics.
