About the series
Set in the grim final years of World War II, Irena (2022–present, Silvester) is a three-issue series that brings to life the harrowing true story of Irena Sendler, a Polish social worker who smuggled Jewish children out of the Warsaw Ghetto. Written by Jean-David Morvan and Séverine Tréfouël, with evocative art by David Evrard, the series focuses on the quiet, relentless courage of its protagonist rather than grand heroics. It matters for its unflinching yet humanizing portrayal of a lesser-known figure from Holocaust history, offering a testament to resilience in the face of unimaginable evil.
