About the series
Empire USA, launched by Dargaud in 2008, is a taut six-issue political thriller that imagines a near-future America teetering on the brink of authoritarian collapse. The series, closely associated with writer Jean-Christophe Chauzy and artist Jean-Philippe Peyraud, uses its concise run to explore the fragility of democracy through a tense, character-driven narrative. It matters as a sharp, European-perspective commentary on American power and paranoia, packing a complete, unsettling vision into a single, tightly-wound story arc.
