Derfal le magnifique #[nn]

From La Boîte à Bulles' Bibliothèque de Juanalberto imprint comes this atmospheric 2003 Franco-Belgian album, Derfal le magnifique, created by Roosevelt. The cover draws you into a dimly lit, book-strewn scene where a wild-bearded, bespectacled older man leans intently over an open tome, flanked by two ghostly nude figures and a small white-haired child peering up from below, while a mirror in the background reflects yet another mysterious presence. It's a richly painted, dreamlike composition that promises something genuinely strange and imaginative waiting between the covers.
