Survivants: Anomalies Quantiques, by Leo
Second frame of third page, vol. 1:
There was panic on board, chaos...I took my fate in my own hands.
I grabbed this shuttle and left - full speed, straight ahead.
Second frame of third page, vol. 2:
Tell me what's up, Pam.
This is a spinoff series from the main narrative of Leo's great graphic novel sequence, Les Mondes d'Aldebaran. A group of teenagers are the only survivors of a starship colonisation mission landing on a strange planet; they must grapple with the native fauna, including several different intelligent species of carying degrees of friendliness. As usual the art is gorgeous, and the characters distinctly depicted. I was particularly grabbed by the storyline, which takes an interesting enough if cliched situation and then applies some extra twists; I really wished I had bought all five volumes and not just the first two.
I read the French original which you can get here and here, but there is also an English translation available here and here.
This was my top unread comic in a language other than English. Next in that pile is the three-volume Auguria by Pieter Nuyten.
