Been reading a French manga called Radiant for a while, and while I dunno about a strictly left wing bent to the author it definitely leans that way with it’s exploration of power and politics in it’s setting, focused almost entirely on a subclass of people who have been othered by society trying to get by while they get demonized largely just for being made victims by an overzealous inquisition. I suppose one could read a kind of awkward allegorical reflection of our society in a similar vein to X-men being an allegory for gay people back in the 90’s.
