L'Autre Monde - Cycle 3 #1

The third cycle of Rodolphe and Magnin's L'Autre Monde opens with a wintery atmosphere that immediately sets a tone of wonder and quiet unease — a moonlit snowy forest frames three figures pressing forward while a towering, blue-skinned giant looms ghostlike above them, and a grand castle rises in the misty distance. Scattered candelabras and star-like lights dot the foreground, hinting at a world where the magical and the perilous are thoroughly intertwined. Published by Clair de Lune in 2017, this first half of Le Pays de Noël promises a richly illustrated journey into a realm where Christmas-tinged enchantment carries an unmistakably darker edge.
