Blueberry #[8]

This Finnish-language collection from Like brings together four Blueberry adventures — Arizona Love, Mister Blueberry, Varjot Tombstonen Yllä, and Geronimo — in a single handsome volume. Giraud's cover painting says everything about the character's cool-blooded appeal: Blueberry sits at a poker table, a revolver resting in his steady hand beside a stack of chips, his sharp gaze and loosened cravat radiating the kind of dangerous composure that has made this Western series a European favorite. It's a confident, beautifully rendered package from Charlier and Giraud that gives Finnish readers a substantial helping of the frontier West in one sitting.
