The Nikopol Trilogy | Enki Bilal, Justin Kelly

2 posts | 3 read

It's the year 2023 and Alcide Nikopol has been revived from a state of suspended animation after 30 years orbiting Earth. In the meantime, the planet has suffered two nuclear wars, and France is ruled by the ruthless dictator J.F. Choublanc. The immortal gods of Egyptian antiquity have also reawakened to revive their rule over humanity, and they now hover above the crumbling technopolis of Paris in a massive stone pyramid/airship. Horus, the renegade falcon god, takes possession of Nikopol's body, rendering him immortal, and concocts a conspiracy to overthrow the Choublanc regime. When Nikopol cracks under the pressure of Horus's possession, he is reduced to muttering the poetry of Baudelaire while he wanders the halls of a mental hospital.

so-so

Started out strong, but I didn't really get much enjoyment out of the last two chapters. Read somewhere that this was a masterpiece, and chapter one may qualify, but blah to the rest.

The idea is intriguing but the story was so spastic it was hard to keep up with. And while the art was very good, it often detracted from the story instead of adding anything of substance. I think they missed a great opportunity here.
