James Cook #2

The second volume of this Dutch-language series brings together the worlds of European exploration and Pacific island culture in vivid, dramatic fashion. Federico Nardo's cover sets the scene with striking intensity: red-coated British sailors face off against indigenous warriors armed with bows and spears on a tropical shore, while behind them a tall ship is nearly swallowed by a towering, lightning-split wave. Written by LF Bollée and Vicente Hoberg, Zo ver mogelijk ("As Far as Possible") captures the tension, wonder, and danger that defined the age of sail — making this 2022 release a genuinely compelling addition to any adventure comics collection.
