De zang van de vampiers #6

From Corbeyran and Richard Guérineau comes this sixth chapter of De zang van de vampiers, subtitled "Levensvormen" — and the cover alone sets a deeply atmospheric tone. A armed woman strides confidently through a mist-shrouded violet forest, while two armed men stand warily behind her, all three dwarfed by an ancient gnarled tree from which a massive, ghostly skull-like entity looms out of the purple haze above them. Guérineau's artwork bathes every detail in an eerie nocturnal palette that makes this 2009 release feel both tense and hauntingly beautiful.
