Plastok

In this short, striking French series from Glénat, a young woman’s mundane life is upended when she discovers a strange, living substance in her apartment—a gooey entity she names Plastok. Written by Maud Michel and Nicolas Signarbieux, with Signarbieux providing the art, the three-issue run blends body horror with a quiet, domestic intimacy. The story matters for its inventive, unsettling premise and its focused exploration of isolation and connection through a surreal, sci-fi lens.
