Barracuda #3

The third volume of Jean Dufaux and Jérémy's swashbuckling series arrives with a cover that crackles with menace: a long-haired, gold-trimmed figure strides forward through driving rain, lightning splitting the stormy sky on either side, their expression set with cold, focused resolve. Jérémy's painted cover work gives the scene a brooding, atmospheric weight that suits the "Duel" title perfectly. If the first two chapters drew you in, this 2014 Cinebook release looks ready to raise the stakes considerably.
