Biguden #2

The second volume of Stan Silas's charming Franco-Belgian series finds its small, wide-eyed protagonist perched atop a towering stone figure deep in a misty blue forest, reading intently by the glow of swirling luminous birds and creatures that flutter all around. The blend of Breton folklore and manga-inflected warmth is immediately apparent in the subtitle Bugul-Noz — a name drawn from Breton legend — and the cover's ethereal atmosphere promises something genuinely enchanting. If the 2015 first volume left you curious, this second installment looks like a beautiful reason to keep following Biguden's journey.
