Jeremiah #24

A lone figure stands quietly among gravestones beneath a gnarled, wind-bent tree against a warm golden sky — Hermann's atmospheric cover for Jeremiah #24 sets a contemplative, melancholy tone from the very first glance. Published by Dupuis in 2003, "De laatste diamant" (The Last Diamond) promises the kind of spare, evocative post-apocalyptic storytelling that has defined this long-running Belgian series. Hermann's cover art, rendered entirely by his own hand from pencils to inks, speaks volumes without a single word.
