L'oiseau Blanc #[nn]

A twin-engine biplane — rendered in crisp white against a stark black sky — cuts through jagged lightning bolts on this striking cover from Editions Paquet's Cockpit aviation line. Behind the aircraft looms a shadowy shield bearing a skull-and-crossbones emblem, lending the image a tense, foreboding atmosphere. The work of P. Bresson, E. Drèze, and A. Taymans, this 2017 release promises the kind of dramatic, historically flavored aerial adventure that fans of the genre will want to explore.
