Fantomet #1/2009
"Den hvite hingsten" kicks off a gripping tale in Fantomet #1/2009, where a quiet hero returns to Hestenes dal after time in the deep woods, only to find his sanctuary under siege. When a gang attacks the local horses, killing or abducting them, Hero is drawn into Walker’s Ride—a high-stakes horse race meant to launder illegal money—amid a citywide crackdown by a ruthless mayor. Written by Hans Lindahl and Jens E. Røsåsen and illustrated with striking clarity by Lindahl, with inks and letters by the same, the cover by Hans Lindahl captures the story’s tense, mythic tone.
In "Den hvite hingsten," Jo finds quiet refuge in Hestenes dal after stepping back from life in the deep woods, raising her child in peace. When a gang raids the valley, slaughtering or stealing the horses, Jo is unexpectedly drawn into Walker’s Ride—a high-stakes horse race designed to launder ill-gotten money through legal gambling.
In "En flik av paradis," Jerome and Babette visit Babette’s friend, who’s recently moved to the countryside and just given birth to her first child—though the child’s father is not her husband. The quiet rhythm of rural life unfolds alongside unspoken tensions, as the visit stirs memories and questions neither the friend nor her guests can quite name.
