The Legendaries (French: Les Légendaires) is a comic book series created in 2004 by Patrick Sobral and published by Delcourt. It is set in a world called Alysia. The Legendaries are five heroes who, in an attempt to stop an evil sorcerer named Darkhell from using the Stone of Jovénia,one of six magical stones used to create the world of Alysia, were unable to keep it from shattering, causing everyone, themselves included, to revert to childhood. Blamed by the people of Alysia for the "Jovénia Incident", the Legendaries split up, only to be reunited by their erstwhile leader Danael in an attempt to undo the spell and restore their adulthood.

The Legendaries

  • Danael - The Leader of the Legendaries. Knight of the Kingdom of Larbos and former member of the Silver Falcons who represents the virtue of Dignity. His goal in life is to fight injustice throughout Alysia. He is armed with a golden sword forged in the Elven World.
  • Ironclaw / Claw (French: Gryfenfer / Gryf) - A man-beast representing the virtue of Courage. Claw is Danael's best friend whose courage is joined with an impulsiveness that causes him to make foes. His claws can slice through rock.
  • Jadina - A magician and a princess who represents the virtue of Intelligence. Her parents, the King and Queen of the kingdom of Orchidia have viewed her adventuring with the Legendaries with disapproval and have banished her after the Jovénia incident, stripping her of her royal title. While Jadina can be spoiled, she is good hearted.
  • Razzia -The Colossus of Rymar who represents the virtue of Strength. Once a muscular barbarian hero, he has been reduced to the pudgy overweight boy he used to be, but still retains his strength. Razzia is armed with a blade dubbed the "Leviathan" and has a large appetite.
  • Shimy - An Elemental Elf who represents the virtue of Purity. As an Elemental Elf, she is able to fuse with earth, water and fire. Shimy and Jadina don't get along.
