L'Accordeur #1

Dynamite's L'Accordeur #1 arrives in 2007 as a sophisticated European-format album, with Ignacio Noé's lush artwork setting an immediately intimate tone. The cover pulls you in close to a passionate embrace between a dark-haired man and woman, their languid, entwined figures rendered against warm floral tones — all framed above by a piano keyboard that hints at the story's musical world. "L'Accordeur et Madame" promises the kind of sensual, character-driven drama that European comics do so well.
