L' Enfer du tromé #[nn]

From Philippe Renaux Editeur's 1987 Franco-Belgian album Dans le Bagne: Arthur Leboss — L'Enfer du Tromé, Francis Keller delivers a striking cover depicting a tense-looking man in a yellow jacket and peaked cap, his face partially shadowed, set against a backdrop of imposing industrial or futuristic architecture. The mood is atmospheric and unsettling, with Keller's linework — he handles both pencils and inks throughout — lending the scene a gritty, noir-inflected edge. A compelling slice of late-1980s French bande dessinée that fans of science fiction and hardboiled adventure will want to seek out.
