Ik, moordenaar #[nn]

Against a stark black background, a shadowy figure in a trench coat and flat cap looms with menacing intensity, a single drop of blood-red color clinging to one raised finger — Keko's high-contrast black-and-white cover art is arrestingly minimalist. Ik, Moordenaar ("I, Murderer") from Scratch Books pairs writer Antonio Altarriba with artist and inker Keko for what promises to be a dark, brooding crime narrative. This 2017 album is a striking visual statement before you've even opened the cover.
