Algernon Woodcock #2

The second volume of Algernon Woodcock arrives from Finix Comics in 2022 with "Die sieben Herzen von Arran," and Guillaume Sorel's cover immediately sets a quietly mysterious tone — a solitary figure in a brown coat and tall hat crouches low among rocks and lush green grass, seemingly intent on something hidden just out of sight. Sorel's painterly linework bathes the entire scene in rich, verdant light, giving the image a dreamy, almost fairy-tale atmosphere that feels both intimate and faintly unsettling. Written by Mathieu Gallié and Saskia Funke with art, inks, and colors all by Sorel, this is a beautifully crafted album that rewards anyone drawn to thoughtful, visually immersive European comics storytelling.
