Bat Lash #5
In "Sur les traces de l'homme immortel," Bat Lash finds himself drawn into a mystery that leads him through dusty ruins and forgotten legends, all while navigating a world where the past refuses to stay buried. With art by Henry Scarpelli and a striking cover by Nick Cardy, this 1971 issue delivers a classic Western mystery with a touch of the supernatural, wrapped in the distinctive style of its era.
In "Le roi des poltrons," the new Ranger’s reputation for cowardice takes a strange turn when Tomahawk, struck unconscious, is thrust into World War II—where he uncovers a shocking truth: the Ranger’s bloodline has been marked by fear across every American conflict. The past and present collide as the frontier’s quiet mystery deepens into a haunting revelation about legacy and courage.
In "Scooter garde-plage," Jo takes on a lifeguard job at the beach to make up for breaking a statue at his aunt's house, despite not knowing how to swim—putting him in charge of safety with nothing but nerves and a whistle.
In "La voyante," Peggy’s unsettling prediction from a carnival fortune teller sets off a frantic chase across the midway—Binky, convinced the tall blonde man is a threat, drags her through tents and midway games in a desperate bid to avoid him. The story unfolds with playful tension, blending mystery and misadventure under the flickering lights of the carnival.
