About the series
In this short-lived French series from Pierre Charles Éditeur, Garth (1979–1980) follows the adventures of a barbarian hero in a sword-and-sorcery world, blending classic fantasy tropes with European comic storytelling. Running just three issues, the series is primarily associated with writer and artist Gérald Forton, whose dynamic, expressive linework brought the titular character's brutal, mystical quests to life. Though brief, Garth stands as a minor but vivid example of late-70s European fantasy comics, reflecting the era's fascination with Conan-style heroes filtered through a distinctly French lens.
