Ghost Kid #[nn]

A lone rider on a dappled horse surveys a vast, windswept landscape from a rocky ridge, a gnarled bare tree twisting beside them against a pale, hazy sky — it's a quietly arresting image that sets a melancholy, atmospheric tone for this Western. Tiburce Oger, who handles writing, art, and inks entirely on his own, brings a painterly, dusty elegance to the 2021 Saga Uitgaven release of Ghost Kid. If you're drawn to wide-open frontier storytelling with a thoughtful visual sensibility, this one deserves a place on your shelf.
