Harry Octane #2

Two muscle cars — numbers 119 and 21 — trade paint on a dirt oval track beneath the "Superspeed" banner, dust flying as a skull-faced mural looms over the infield crowd in the background. Papazoglakis's linework and Tanja Cinna's colors give this 2013 Glénat release a sun-baked, high-octane atmosphere that feels equal parts vintage Americana and European cool. La Race Mystique promises the kind of gritty, wheel-to-wheel drama that fans of motorsport comics will find hard to resist.
