Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Aria is a Belgian comic book series of Heroic Fantasy created by Michel Weyland. First published in comic magazine Tintin in 1979, the series later moved to Dupuis Edition.Aria is a warrioress who lives in an Alternate Universe that functions a lot like a Medieval European Fantasy, more precisely in Medieval Spain or Portugal, given the look of the buildings in The 'Verse.A war orphan, Aria survived by the skin of her teeth as a little girl, first being given as a sacrifice to a malevolent water goddess and then being taken in by a league of bandits constituted mainly of other orphans. The league was headed by an abusive caretaker who taught his wards how to pilfer property and pickpocket people. Boys were supposed to become large scale bandits, girls were supposed to become prostitutes, which made Aria quite averse to men and sexuality as a whole. One night, after escaping from the league's estate, Aria starts a new life as a Knight Errant whose main goal is to remain free at all costs. Free to go wherever she pleases, free from men, free from societal rules and offering her help wherever she sees injustice.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The series is a clear example of a Feminist Fantasy and can be quite Anvilicious about it at times, despite developing many themes.The series is still ongoing to this day. It is not to be confused with the manga of the same name.

All Men Are Perverts: Men in positions of power and soldiers especially are motivated by sex. But most men in Aria's world just can't keep it in their pants whenever an attractive woman is around.

After the End: The plot twist of "Les Larmes de la déesse": the water that turns men into fish people are caused by a nuclear barrel polluting a river. Modern technologies show up in later books as well.

All Abusers Are Male: As said below, you will never find a male victim of abuse in this series, unless the abuse is perpetrated by another man. Female abusers don't exist.
