Hauteville House #17

The seventeenth chapter of Delcourt's Hauteville House series arrives with a striking cover: a lone rider on horseback silhouetted against a blazing orange sky, wearing what appears to be a mechanical or goggled mask and carrying a rifle, while a vast herd stretches across the dusty plains behind him. Subtitled Le Journal d'Arthur Blake, this 2019 entry promises a journey into rugged, otherworldly frontier territory where steampunk sensibility meets the wide-open West. A moody, atmospheric piece from the creative team of Duval, Gioux, Emem, and Sayago that sets the tone beautifully for whatever Arthur Blake's journal has to reveal.
