About the series
From 2017 onward, Dargaud published Smokin' Parade, a French comic series that blends high-octane action with a darkly imaginative sci-fi premise. Written primarily by Cyril Coppini and Jinsei Kataoka, with art by Kazuma Kondō, the story follows a young boy who, after a tragic encounter with monstrous beings, is reborn as a hybrid fighter in a secret war against grotesque, biomechanical creatures. Though only one issue has been released so far, the series stands out for its striking, kinetic artwork and its fusion of French and Japanese manga influences.
