De Meester-Inquisiteurs #5

Part five of the acclaimed Belgian fantasy series De Meester-Inquisiteurs arrives in 2018 with "Aronn," and Jean Charles Poupard's cover sets a compelling tone — a hooded inquisitor in silver-and-brown armor strides forward with purpose, glowing blade at the ready, while a powerfully built archer companion draws his bow behind him, the two figures silhouetted against a blighted landscape and distant gothic spires. Sylvain Cordurié and Poupard craft a world that feels genuinely epic, blending dark fantasy atmosphere with richly detailed character design. If you've been following this series, "Aronn" looks every bit as gripping as what came before.
