9 Têtes #2

A striking cover sets the scene for *9 Têtes* #2 — *Neige sur le lac* — as a tall, rifle-bearing Native American figure commands the foreground, rendered in warm earth tones by Tiburce Oger, while a primitive aircraft drifts through a smoky sky behind him. The contrast between the man's grounded, watchful presence and that strange flying machine in the distance hints at a world where frontier wilderness and early technology uneasily coexist. Published in 1999 by Les Humanoïdes Associés, with a story by Igor David, this Franco-Belgian album promises an adventure steeped in the landscapes and cultures of the North American indigenous world.
