La foire aux immortels

The Carnival of Immortals (French: La Foire aux immortels; also published in English as Gods in Chaos and A Bedlam of Immortals) is a 1980 science fiction graphic novel written and illustrated by the Yugoslavian-born French cartoonist and storyteller Enki Bilal. It is the first part of the Nikopol Trilogy, followed up by La Femme piège (The Woman Trap) in 1986 and ending with Froid Équateur (Equator Cold) in 1992. In 2004, Bilal directed the film adaptation Immortel (Ad Vitam), although many plot elements were changed from the comic book. La Foire aux immortels is regarded as one of the most original science fiction comics which have revolutionised the conventions of comic art.
