mé Aaricia and her children, sold as slaves to an Imperial prince, refuse to believe that Thorgal is dead, and keep trying to escape, eventually wearing off their new owner’s patience. Condemned to a year of hard labour in the silver mines, they meet someone unexpected there: Kriss of Valnor, wielding the whip of a forewoman, yet a prisoner like them. Despite their mutual hatred, the two women will have to work together to escape...
Still appearing before Freyja at the Valkyrie tribunal, Kriss continues to tell the story of her life before Thorgal. Following her tragic first meeting with Sigwald, the young woman’s existence changed considerably. Now free and independent, the former victim quickly became the bully, allowing her worst instincts to rule her. Until, one day, her past caught up with her, and her horrific revenge turned out to have serious consequences – including for Freyja’s final judgement ...
While the rest of the world thinks she’s dead – again – Kriss is hellbent on rescuing her son Aniel in Bag Dadh. It’s a long trip, though, and the mercenary woman won’t wait. She needs a shortcut. So she decides to climb the legendary Mountain of Time, as it is said it can alter the passage of days. Yet it’s no mere climb she finds, but rather a full-blown quest ... Meanwhile, Jolan must continue the war against Magnus alone ...
Kriss has become Queen of the Vikings of the North-East! The brand- new monarch must immediately face a serious threat: the troops of Emperor Magnus are heading her way, intent on conquering all the northern kingdoms, while Taljar Sologhonn, the Healer-King, is still trying to unite the Vikings under his own banner to resist the Emperor, and wants Kriss’s allegiance. A deadly game of alliances and treasons begins – but who is really the masked Taljar?
Swept away by the raging waters of the Raheborg along with Magnus’s armies, Kriss survived. Found and cared for by an herbalist and his apprentice, the queen must now hurry back across the lake-ocean to appear before our king – or the law of the Vikings will strip her of her crown and her hopes of one day using her power to rescue Aniel. But the lake-ocean is difficult to navigate, and before long Kriss finds herself marooned on a decidedly strange island ...
Of all the enemies Thorgal made in his life, Kriss of Valnor is by far the fiercest. Strangely, she’s also, one of the most ambiguous, and the mother of one of his children. Can there still be redemption for her? Kriss sacrificed herself to save not only her son Aniel, but also Aaricia and her family. An act of selfless bravery for which she’s rewarded with waking up in the kingdom of the gods. Yet Valhalla isn’t hers yet, for she’s also committed numerous terrible and despicable acts throughout her life. She is brought before the Valkyrie Tribunal, to have her life judged by the goddess Freyja. And the childhood she is asked to recount was a most unhappy one ...
In the wild and inhospitable European far north, in the land of Scandinavian myth and runic legend, Viking warriors discover a child in a space capsule. Leif Haraldson adopts him and gives him the names of his gods: Thorgal Aegirsson, son of Thor (god of lightning) and son of Aegir (master of the sea). Upon Leif's death, the Viking chief Gandalf the Insane isolates Thorgal from others. Only the friendship of Aaricia, the daughter of Gandalf, brightens Thorgal's solitary childhood. Their mutual affection quickly turns into true love. The tale takes place in the seventh century and draws its narrative power from the imaginary world of magic spells and legends, where men and gods still mix. More than a simple adventure story, this series is a true apology for freedom and the fight against the arbitrary, because what stands out most in Thorgal's personality is his deep sense of humanity ...
The Valkyries have passed judgement: Kriss of Valnor has been sent back to Midgard, free to live a new life better than the first – she cannot kill anyone or anything, or she herself will die immediately. Befriended by Hildebrun, daughter of King Gustavson, she suddenly finds herself in the midst of intense political scheming, caught between the threat of Emperor Magnus, invader from the south, and a new, mysterious healer-king who’s trying to unite the Vikings ...
He's a child of the stars, beloved of the gods and touched by destiny, but also a reluctant hero, a simple man with simple dreams. Thorgal: an extraordinary Viking saga with strong elements of science fiction, by one of the master scriptwriters of Franco-Belgian comics.Already 17 volumes available from Cinebook!
"Unvarnished. Punk."–The New York Times King-Cat Classix collects material from the first fifty issues of John Porcellino’s King-Cat Comics as they appeared in self-published, handmade zines throughout the 1990s. These strips span Porcellino’s dynamic evolution from saturated, punk drawings to his characteristic refined minimalism, revealing his work as nothing short of a catalyst that has inspired artists like Chris Ware in the emerging literary comics scene. In the inky drawings featuring beloved pets, awkward teenage one-night-stands, and everyday blunders, we see a nascent style steeped in truth and transparency—one that continues to ring true today. Porcellino’s mind is spread out on the page, with an uninhibited id running wildly about dreams and sexual fantasies, not unlike the gritty, stabbing pen strokes of Julie Doucet. He sketches fragmented moments and glimpses of interaction that seem to reflect the very manner in which we process memory: we are made up of a stream of consciousness, captured in fleeting mental images, and Porcellino externalizes that messy internal reality. Follow along the path of Porcellino’s dynamic evolution and relish in the inspirational power of this groundbreaking collection.
