Jour J #25

Set in a thrillingly reimagined 1220 where England is the capital of a French-ruled kingdom, Jour J #25 transports readers to a medieval London dominated by a Gothic cathedral that looks unmistakably like Notre-Dame de Paris. The cover, rendered by Léo Pilipović, places an armored knight astride a magnificent blue-caparisoned horse at center stage, surrounded by tournament tents and attendants in a sweeping, atmospheric scene that evokes the pageantry of a great joust. Writers Fred Duval and Jean-Pierre Pécau promise a story of high medieval drama — the last tournament of the world's greatest knight, in a capital that history never quite built this way.
