Frnck #8

The eighth volume of Brice Cossu and Olivier Bocquet's time-travel adventure arrives subtitled Exode, and the cover says it all: Frnck — red-hooded jacket, sneakers, knife in hand — leads a sprawling, urgent procession of humans, creatures, a white horse, and at least one fantastical beast across a vivid alien-looking landscape, a comet streaking overhead. The sheer variety of figures crowding behind him, from a young girl in a white dress to grizzled warriors, makes it clear this is no ordinary escape. Published by Dupuis in 2022, this is grand, kinetic cartooning from a series that keeps finding new ways to make prehistoric adventure feel genuinely breathless.
