Epic Graphic Novel: Blueberry #2
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume collects the second installment of Jean-Michel Charlier and Jean Giraud's acclaimed Western series, originally serialized in France. Following the adventures of Lieutenant Mike Blueberry, it continues the gritty, realistic storytelling that defined the Epic Graphic Novel line from Marvel.
"Book Three: Ballad For a Coffin" delivers a taut, cinematic chapter in the Blueberry saga, with Jean-Michel Charlier, Jean-Marc Lofficier, and Randy Lofficier crafting a pulse-pounding escape across treacherous terrain. Jean Giraud’s masterful art—pencils and inks alike—brings every ricocheting bullet, crumbling bridge, and desperate maneuver to life, while Évelyne Tran-Lê’s colors deepen the dusty, sun-scorched atmosphere. The cover by Giraud captures the moment’s tension perfectly, sealing the mood of a story where every choice carries weight.
