Bakelandt integraal #13

A masked figure in a sweeping dark cloak and tricorn hat dominates the foreground of this beautifully rendered Venice scene, white carnival mask staring out with quiet menace as gondoliers pole their craft past grand baroque architecture in the background. Hee Leemans's Bakelandt Integraal 13 collects another chapter of the beloved Flemish adventure series in a handsome 2024 omnibus edition from Saga Uitgaven. The atmospheric Venetian setting promises intrigue, disguise, and the kind of swashbuckling tension that has kept readers loyal to Bakelandt for decades.
