Winner of the 2023 Quai des Bulles Festival Coup de Coeur award and the ECO-FAUVE award presented for excellence in graphic novels that feature an environmental angle. In this rustic future, three souls eke out a living in space: Ji-Soo, a scientist with a passion for discovery, Camina, a feisty, battle-scarred mercenary, and Alex, an asteroid miner who has never been to Earth. Through their exhausting daily lives, they each dream individual dreams, following their own road toward that horizon. But when those paths cross, those dreams change trajectory, taking them all in a direction they couldn’t have imagined. What will become of humanity when it is completely disconnected from its cradle, the Earth? Created by artist and author GUILLAUME SINGELIN, FRONTIER is a feature-length snapshot of life in the age of space exploration. Built on a foundation of plausible technology and scientific advancement, FRONTIER explores the new, daily challenges of life in space: from the mundane task of farming to the political strife of corporate trademark and territory claims. Life in space isn’t easy… but where else can you go? Told in a breathtaking visual mashup of cartoony characters within hyper-detailed and expansive environments, FRONTIER is unlike anything you’ve seen before. Described as “ THE EXPANSE or FIREFLY populated by chibi manga characters,” this premium 200-page graphic novel builds a sprawling new universe that may one day come true.
