Frank Lincoln #5

The fifth chapter of Marc Bourgne and Eillam's stylish Franco-Belgian thriller finds Frank Lincoln and a young woman standing together on a neon-drenched Asian city street — his expression guarded, a pistol held low at his side, hers equally wary as the glow of kanji signs and urban storefronts surrounds them. The atmosphere is tense and cinematic, the kind of nocturnal, rain-soaked setting that suits a man who clearly operates in dangerous company. Kusu-Gun promises exactly the sort of sharp, globetrotting intrigue that has made this series a compelling entry in Glénat's crime catalogue.
