Kind des Blitzes #3

The fifth volume of Bichebois and Poli's Kind des Blitzes — subtitled Wohin die Ströme fließen — opens with a cover that pulls you right into its tension: a wide-eyed young boy, clearly desperate, clings to the edge of a wooden surface while strange reddish beads scatter around his grasping hands, churning green waters and rocky crags looming behind him. Published by Splitter Verlag in 2009, this German-language fantasy series continues to showcase the duo's gift for expressive character work and atmospheric, elemental peril.
