De Adelaars van Rome #4

Marini's sweeping Roman epic continues with this fourth volume, its cover dominated by a fierce, long-haired barbarian warrior clutching a short blade and a round shield, his intense gaze cutting through a dust-red sky. Behind him, a mob of rugged, weathered fighters press forward beneath what appears to be an animal skull mounted on a standard, suggesting a tribal war band on the move. Published by Dargaud Benelux in 2013, this Dutch-language edition delivers Marini's signature richly painted artwork at its most atmospheric and visceral.
