About the series
From 2018 to 2022, Delcourt published Hillbilly, a four-issue comic series that blends Appalachian folklore with dark fantasy. The story follows a wandering mountain man, Rondel, as he navigates a world of witches, monsters, and ancient curses, all rendered in a distinctive, moody art style. Created by writer/artist Eric Powell, known for his work on The Goon, the series stands out for its gritty, folk-horror atmosphere and its unflinching look at the harsh beauty of rural America. It matters as a compact, self-contained saga that brings a unique, regional voice to the horror-fantasy genre.
