Fierce (2023)

The legendary King Arthur is now an old drunkard who spends his days slouched on his throne. He owes his former glory to the magic sword the wizard Merlin forged for him in order to slay the hordes of demons who came to invade the kingdom of Pendragon.

Both Ysabelle and the sword are determined to change their fate, and to do so they must become allies on a long journey.

Aristotle, Part 1 (Europe Comics 2023)

Let’s join the class and take a stroll with Theophrastus, the great botanist, as he tells us the life of Aristotle.

In his story, we meet the wise Plato, the brilliant, arrogant Alexander (before he was ‘the Great’), the women Aristotle loved, the children in his life, and a whole cast of characters torn from the papyri of classical literature. As no biography of a philosopher would be complete without philosophy, we’re given an in-depth overview of Aristotle’s many ideas. Ancient people come to life (no, not literally—this isn’t a zombie story) in this wonderful biography of the great philosopher. By Tassos Apostolidis.

A new form of government, called Systema, runs society along with the large corporations that support it. A neo-liberal dictatorship rejects those it no longer considers citizens. Amidst it all, two young orphan girls become modern-day Robin Hoods, helping the most needy – those whose voices have been repressed by the system. By Efa.
