Description

Comics master Philippe Druillet muses on death in this psychedelic tale of drug-addled biker gangs battling it out at the end of the world.

In 1975 Philippe Druillet lost his wife Nicole to cancer. He exorcised the demons her death left behind in The Night, a nihilistic story about the inevitable ending that none of us can avoid. Set in a desolate, post-apocalyptic world, The Night follows gangs of dope-addicted bikers on a collision course for a bloody battle for the ultimate 'shoot.'

Desperate, dark, explosive, and violent - The Night is a baroque classic from the master himself.

Critic Reviews

“"A compendium of superbly crafted and distinctively complex images punctuated by a kind of brutal and futuristic slang expressions, "The Night" is one of those amazing and unique stories that will be read again and again and again." - Midwest Book Review”

"A darkly flamboyant apocalyptic comic that left me speechless and gawking" - Bleeding Cool
