Ira Dei

Set in the late 11th century, Ira Dei is a historical series from Dargaud Benelux that began in 2018, written by Vincent Brugeas and illustrated by Ronan Toulhoat. Across its two issues, the story follows a band of Norman knights on a secret mission into the heart of a hostile, war-torn France. Brugeas and Toulhoat bring a gritty, grounded realism to the medieval setting, focusing on the brutal politics and personal loyalties of the era. It matters for its meticulous, atmospheric take on historical adventure comics, offering a dense, character-driven narrative in a compact run.
