DISCOVER A BRAND-NEW COMIC SERIES BASED ON THE HIT VIDEO GAME FRANCHISE!

For Juan Cortez, guerrilla warfare is a profession. Death, a hobby.

Over the years, he’s traveled from countries at war to conflict zones, putting his experience and training at the service of the highest bidder. This time, fate led him to Santa Costa, a South American country that curiously reminds him of Yara, his native land. Because here, as on the island of Antón Castillo, the recent discovery of a rare resource, a mineral called "Tantalum," has upset the economy of a small nation previously ignored.

Three camps now face each other: the military junta recently established in power by Di Stefano, the bourgeois party led by the daughter of the assassinated former leader, and a revolutionary group, defender of labor and indigenous rights. It was the latter, guided by their leader Max Purillo, who called on Juan's talents. And for him, it's blessed bread. A nascent guerrilla, a troubled period politically, and above all: money. A lot of money. To save the country, he is asked to strike a blow by assassinating General Di Stefano. But of course, nothing will go as planned...

A prequel to the events of Far Cry 6, this amphetamine-boosted comic introduces Juan Cortez, one of the central characters in the newest installment of Ubisoft's hit video game series. Collection includes the 4 issue series plus cover gallery and bonus material.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Mathieu Mariolle was born in Paris in 1978, and has been passionate about comics ever since his father slipped a Blueberry into his hands when he was a kid. After a few years working in the field of video games, heading up a translation department, he began to focus on writing comics. Influenced by authors as varied and accomplished as Jean-David Morvan, Xavier Dorison, Luc Brunschwig, Naoki Urasawa, and Fabien Nury, Mariolle has created a number of series from vastly different genres, ranging from thrillers and science fiction to children's and adventure stories. His recent work includes Nola (Dargaud 2015) with Flaviano, and the magnificent two-part mini-series Blue Note (Dargaud 2013; Europe Comics 2017), with Mikaël Bourgouin.
