Esprit du vent #3

The third volume of Esprit du Vent, subtitled "Torches Humaines," arrives with a cover drenched in firelit tension — a long-haired gunfighter stands poised in the foreground, rifle in hand, while a shadowy figure in a wide-brimmed hat looms behind him against a burning hotel. Manfredi and Frisenda's Western series continues to deliver that moody, cinematic atmosphere that sets it apart from the crowd, with Frisenda's cover art making striking use of deep shadows and warm flame-orange light. If you've been following this Mosquito/Horizons Lointains series, issue three looks set to push its protagonist into some seriously dangerous territory.
