U4

“My name’s Jules. From the window of my Paris apartment, I’m looking in horror at the piles of bodies in the street below. My parents are on the other side of the world. They’re almost certainly dead. My older brother, Pierre, can only drown his sorrow in drugs, but I must look after Alicia, a little girl who somehow escaped the virus and is all alone. But what can I do for her? My only hope is to join the other Warriors of Time masters… You choose which volume to read first. The first four are parallel stories, so it doesn’t matter which one you start with. But you must finish with Khronos, where the four threads are finally brought together. Script by Pierre-Paul Renders, Denis Lapière - Art by Adrián Huelva.

Alter Ego

Thriller with multiple entries, narrative puzzle? Deploying six-part, Alter Ego reads, interprets and understands itself as an enigma to six keys. Six albums, six heroes, six perspectives. Each album is an adventure that takes us around the world, including international conspiracy, scientific discovery and struggle for freedom. To produce this series, director Pierre-Paul Renders gathered around him a studio, as the new American TV series, or in the heyday of Tintin. 

This is a team of nine people who worked together between Belgium, France, Spain and Italy, thanks to the magic of the net: a creative writer (Pierre-Paul Renders), screenwriter (Denis Lapière), a designer artistic director (Mathieu Reynes), four designers (Benjamin Benéteau Luca Erbetta, Efa, Emil Zuga), a colorist (Albertine Slow Motion) and his assistant. Together they offer the Franco-Belgian series fans a terrific thriller 360 pages. Alter Ego.
