Murena

Set in the brutal, decadent world of Nero’s Rome, Murena is a sweeping historical epic from Dargaud Benelux that began in 1997. Written primarily by Jean Dufaux and brought to life by the detailed, classical artwork of Philippe Delaby, the series delves into the political intrigue, violence, and tragedy of the early Roman Empire. Over its thirteen-issue run, it has become a standout in European comics for its unflinching portrayal of power and betrayal, offering a gripping narrative that feels both ancient and timeless.
