Corsu #1

Set against a rugged mountain landscape bathed in earthy greens and browns, this 1999 DCL éditions release introduces Corsu with a cover portrait of a determined-looking man in a denim jacket, his hands gripping what appears to be gnarled branches or roots. The subtitle Le Chassar d'Au-Pirées Nocturnes hints at shadowy pursuits amid wild terrain, and Rückstühl's linework gives the whole scene a grounded, atmospheric feel rooted in the Corsican countryside. A compelling opener for anyone drawn to Franco-Belgian adventure with a distinctly regional flavor.
