Gigantik #3

A striking piece of 1981 French science-fiction comics storytelling, this third Gigantik album — Les titans de l'espace — arrives with a cover that plunges readers straight into the cosmic deep: an armored figure tumbles through a debris-strewn void, surrounded by swirling energy and the ruins of what appears to be a shattered spacecraft, while a sleek vessel darts in the background against a luminous nebula. J. Cardona's artwork brings a rich, painterly grandeur to the scene, and Mora's storytelling instincts are clearly matched by visuals that make the scale of space feel genuinely vast and perilous. Published by Hachette and Novedi, this is a handsome chapter in a Franco-Belgian series that wore its love of grand-scale adventure firmly on its sleeve.
