Jon Rohner #[nn]

A sun-drenched South Seas adventure from the singular pen of Alfonso Font, this Kult Editionen volume collects the story "Mein Freund Tusi-Tala" and announces itself with a cover that captures the spirit of tropical romance and seafaring escapade. Font's cover art places the blond, open-shirted Jon Rohner aboard a tall ship's rigging, arm-in-arm with a dark-haired young woman wearing a floral hair ornament and a patterned blue dress — lush island greenery visible in the warm background behind them. With every line, color, and ink stroke the work of Font alone, this 2008 release is a beautifully self-contained showcase of his warm, inviting ligne claire-influenced style.
