Adèle Blanc-Sec - Integrale #1-2-3

This handsome 2009 France Loisirs omnibus collects the first three volumes of Tardi's beloved Adèle Blanc-Sec series in a single edition. The cover sets the mood perfectly: Adèle herself stands composed and watchful in her period hat, while looming behind her are a snarling green demon, a hulking grey beast, and a vivid red pterodactyl-like creature — a wonderfully unsettling gallery of the supernatural threats surrounding her. A great way to dive into Tardi's atmospheric, early-twentieth-century Parisian adventures in one satisfying read.
