Fracasse #2

The second volume of Marion Mousse's Fracasse series opens with a striking image of a lone figure wrapped in a deep blue cloak, hunched against swirling snow and bare, darkened trees — a scene that captures both vulnerability and quiet determination. Published in 2004 by treize étrange, Coup de Tempête ("Storm Surge") promises atmosphere in abundance, with Mousse's cover art conveying a brooding, wintry isolation that pulls you straight in. If this haunting visual is any indication, fans of atmospheric Franco-Belgian storytelling will find plenty to savor here.
