OVNI

OVNI (which means "UFO" in French) is a 2006 comic book created by Lewis Trondheim and Fabrice Parme and published by Trondheim's imprint Shampooing. An animated television series was later produced by Canal+ and Blue Spirit Animation. It revolves around an extraterrestrial named Coda, who crash lands on prehistoric Earth. With his saucer damaged, he tries to survive through many eras of history until he can find a way to travel back home. The comic has no dialogue or panels, instead being a continuous image that shows the many paths Coda can take. Only one leads to the end while the rest result in his death. The TV series takes another approach: whenever Coda dies, he rewinds time a little, allowing him to choose a different action.
