Franka #19

Franka stands triumphant on a rocky outcrop rising from the sea, sword raised high against a moonlit night sky, with a massive ship looming dramatically behind her — it's a striking image that perfectly captures the adventure promised by the title "Das Schwert von Iskander." Henk Kuijpers brings his trademark clean linework to this nineteenth album in the beloved European series, delivering a cover that feels both cinematic and elegantly composed. Fans of the long-running Franka saga will find plenty to look forward to in this 2006 Epsilon edition.
