Redemption

If the second crusade conducted in the middle of the 12th century ended in failure, the extreme violence and massacres perpetuated by the army of Louis VII left many soldiers traumatized. Adhémar de Montfort is one of them and lives now recluse and poor in the County of Rouergue. At the dawn of a third crusade, decided by Pope Gregory VIII in 1189, he has the opportunity to atone for his crimes. A young peasant, knowing his past as a warrior, comes to find him to help defend his village from the abuses committed by the pilgrim Bernard. The latter, under the pretext of wanting to eradicate Catharism in the region of Beaucaire, terrorizes its inhabitants to force them to join the new holy war that is preparing. Before taking action, Adhémar goes in search of his former comrades-in-arms to rebuild a team worthy of the name. Scenario: Tackian, Nicolas
Drawing: Farkas, Lajos.

Orks

The drums of war resonate in the heart of the primordial forest. Aldhar, chief of the clan of claws, has mingled his flesh with the bark of the tree totems and his mind with that of the great serpent. Once again, the clan must find the one who will watch over his destiny. And the task will be harsh. Humans, these dogs who only think of destroying the vestiges in ancient peoples, exploit the sacred lands every day. The dwarves, these corrupt vermines, destroy the forest by means of mechanical galleys towed by their slaves. The elves crowd in their villages and refuse to honor the old pacts.
Worse, they have returned to the state of wild creatures and cannibals. Never did the fate of the primordial races seem so compromised, even the gods claim their offerings of lives, whether human or not. Yet even if the oracles push the clan towards the path of arms, there must be another solution? The fate of the ancient peoples of Arakel is it to disappear? Orks. A comic by Nicolas Tackian and Nicolas Guénet.

Corpus Hermeticum

Corpus Hermeticum is a comic series that is or was edited at Soleil worked on this cartoon. Scenario: Nicolas Tackian. Design: Alain Brion. Corpus Hermeticum was originally published in January 2000 , the most recent album referenced dating from April 2009. From time immemorial, man has sought to unravel the mysteries of creation. Mages, warlocks, shamans, alchemists : so many names given to those who, in the shadows, have sought to reveal the hidden secrets that make up the fabric of our universe. The sum of this knowledge, which was believed lost forever, was recorded by a few insiders in a mythical grimoire. The grail is called the Corpus Hermeticum. 
June 2003 North Greenland. During an archaeological mission, Sergei, Orthodox priest, and Katerina, anthropologist, discovered a Russian nuclear submarine in the ice. This is the K-160, missing since April 2001 in the Barents Sea. In the night, just as inexplicably and without noise, the submarine disappears again. November 2003, the K-160 is again reported to the Gremikha naval base. But contact with this base is immediately cut. A commando is mobilized, accompanied by Katerina and Sergei, to unravel the mystery. Trimmed to dive? A nightmare. Sun launches with Corpus Hermeticum and the syndrome of Cain, his new fantastico-esoteric collection Secret Lands. Corpus Hermeticum will include a series of one-shots at fast pace of publication (every six months). Their only link? A mythical grimoire, the Corpus Hermeticum, containing all the secrets of human history. Some might want to see a community of spirit with a Decalogue appeared in other lands and recurring book Nahik.
