About the series
Based on the novels by Raymond Khoury, this Dargaud series (2009–2016) adapts a globe-spanning thriller into a six-issue comic. The narrative interweaves the modern-day theft of artifacts from the Metropolitan Museum of Art with the medieval fall of the Knights Templar. Scripted by Khoury and Miguel Lalor, the series is brought to life by a team of artists including Lalor, Daniel Oliveira, and Bruno Rocco. It stands as a visually rich take on the historical conspiracy genre, expanding the original prose into a sequential-art format.
