H. G. Wells #6

Part of Glénat's H. G. Wells graphic novel series, this 2019 Dutch-language adaptation brings "Het eiland van Dr. Moreau" to life with scriptwriter Dobbs and artist Fabrizio Fiorentino doing full artistic duties on the cover. The image sets an immediately tense mood: a ragged, machete-wielding man pushes through a dense jungle while a dark, menacing creature lurks in the canopy above, with a ship silhouetted on stormy waters in the distant background. Fiorentino's lush, atmospheric rendering of the island's wild danger makes this an enticing entry point into one of Wells's most unsettling tales.
