About the series
In the tradition of epic samurai sagas, Saruyama (2010–2011) is an eight-issue miniseries from French publisher Soleil, following a lone warrior's quest through a war-torn feudal Japan. The series is defined by the dynamic, cinematic art of its primary creator, who blends brutal action with a contemplative, almost mythic tone. A compact, visually striking entry in Soleil's catalog of European graphic novels, it stands as a vivid, self-contained tale of honor and survival.
