De Witte Dood #[nn]

Fred de Heij's stark black-and-white cover sets an immediate tone of cold, quiet tension — a heavily bundled soldier crouches low in a snow-covered landscape, rifle at the ready, surrounded by skeletal winter vegetation and distant smoke. The title De Witte Dood ("The White Death") looms in bold red lettering above, a striking contrast against the monochrome scene. Published by MENLU in 2023, this Dutch-language album from writer Willem Ritstier and artist Fred de Heij promises a gripping wartime story steeped in the unforgiving atmosphere of winter combat.
