Once upon a time there was a fallen knight, who believed that saving a princess would allow him to atone for his crimes. Once upon a time there was a princess with dark power over nature, who believed that it was up to her to atone for the crimes of her parents...
Banished for a fault that forever taints his reputation, Arzhur wanders from tavern to field of battle in search of the next contract which will fill his purse. One night, three mysterious old women offer him the chance to regain honour and fortune if he frees the daughter of a neighbouring king, held captive in the ruins of an abandoned castle. But Islen is not the damsel in distress that he expected to save. The two cannot resist each other, and a passionate romance threatens to derail their individual missions.
Magnified by the virtuoso art of Vincent Mallie, Hubert questions the weight of family heritage and delivers, under the finery of a tale, an intimate reflection on our inner monsters.
Darkly She Goes is an ode to redemption that pits free will against fate, brought to life by two masters of the fantasy genre.

About the Author
Hubert was born in 1971 in Saint Renan and studied graphic arts in Angers where he was led into the wondrous world of comics. He started at first making a reputation for himself as a colorist but soon turned to scriptwriting where he established himself as a leading voice in graphic novels for an adult audience. Hubert thus spoke of anorexia, gender, or even homosexuality in tales and stories that have become as essential as Miss Pas Touche or Beauty (both from NBM), drawn by the duo Kerascoet. He passed away, too early, in 2020. Vincent Mallie was born in Paris in 1973. He graduated in graphic arts in Paris. Since 1998 he has been a comic artist collaborating with many top French authors in the field and working on a number of bestselling novels and series. Renowned for the aesthetics of his semi-realistic line, the efficiency of his layouts and his gift for fabulous natural compositions, Vincent Mallie started collaborating with the late Hubert (Beauty, Miss Don't Touch Me) on Darkly She Goes, which gave him the opportunity to offer an epic and seductive drawing, in a feminist tale as powerful as it is striking.
