Julius Corentin Acquefacques, prisonnier des rêves #2

A lone figure — briefcase in hand, caught in a single spotlight — stands before an enormous red stage curtain in this quietly arresting 1991 Delcourt album from Marc-Antoine Mathieu. The title itself trails off into an ellipsis ("La Qu..."), setting the tone for the philosophical playfulness this series is known for. With every element of the work — writing, art, inking, coloring, and lettering — crafted by Mathieu alone, this second chapter of Julius Corentin Acquefacques, prisonnier des rêves promises the same thoughtful, dreamlike vision that makes the series so distinctive.
