Lupus

Lupus Lablennorre is a man on the run. Like a cosmic Odysseus, he wanders from planet to planet, haunted by his past and orbiting around a woman. It starts as a fishing trip with his exmilitary pal, Tony. Their lifelong friendship has started to feel different lately, and not just because of the drugs. Picking up Sanaa, a wealthy and mysterious runaway, only complicates the situation. When tragedy strikes and they're forced to flee, new worlds await with many ways to disappear. But Lupus will find that the tendrils of friendship, love, and family are not so easily severed. Armed with astonishingly expressive brushwork and a dreamy, intimate narrative, Frederik Peeters drifts on the solar winds to a new understanding of memory, guilt, isolation, and connection. Collects the complete four volume series. For fans of Saga, Craig Thompson, Love & Rockets, Jeff Lemire, Moby Dick, and existentialist scifi films like Moon, Gravity, and Blade Runner. Black & white artwork signals that, despite the scifi setting, this is a literary voyage of selfdiscovery. Lupus was a threetime finalist and onetime winner at the Angouleme International Comics Festival!
