Een paus in de geschiedenis #6

The sixth entry in Daedalus's "Een paus in de geschiedenis" series centers on Pope Clement V and the sacrifice of the Knights Templar, and Ugo Pinson's cover sets the stage with striking solemnity — a white-cloaked Templar knight kneels before an enthroned pontiff in full regalia, surrounded by a solemn assembly of clergy in a grand cathedral interior. The tension between the robed figure of authority and the bowed knight speaks volumes about the historical drama within, brought to life by writer France Richemond and artist Germano Giorgiani. A beautifully composed 2024 addition to this European historical comics series that any fan of medieval history will want on their shelf.
