Big Boss #49
In "Bête de l'espace," the centennial of a European city's founding stirs long-buried secrets when the legendary Crimson Folio—once thought a mere record of history—reveals itself as a book of prophecies. As events from its pages begin to unfold, the descendant of the final victim finds themselves at the center of a fate they never asked for. Mort Meskin's dynamic art and George Roussos's inks bring the eerie, foreboding tone to life, while Dick Dillin and Sheldon Moldoff's cover captures the story's mounting dread.
