Léo Loden - Intégrale #5

This fifth omnibus collection of the beloved French detective series Léo Loden brings together more of the sun-drenched Marseille adventures that made Carrere and Arleston fan favorites. The cover sets the tone perfectly: Léo himself looks on with weary exasperation as a car launches dramatically off a rocky cliff in the background, while a broad-shouldered, mustachioed figure looms beside him with an air of gruff authority — exactly the kind of chaotic company this Marseillais detective tends to keep. At 25 EUR, this 2014 intégrale is a generous way to enjoy the humor, heart, and lively mayhem of the series in one handsome volume.
