Franka #8

Franka #8 from Oberon (1986) brings Henk Kuijpers' red-headed adventurer into a thrilling prehistoric world with "De ondergang van de donderdraak" ("The Downfall of the Thunder Dragon"). The cover — pencilled and inked by Kuijpers himself — shows Franka and two companions riding atop a great white creature while brandishing torches, surrounded by swooping dragon-like beasts against a vivid blue sky. It's a wonderfully energetic image that captures the series' signature blend of adventure and warmth.
