Lady Spitfire #1

A RAF Spitfire tears through a stormy, turbulent sky on this atmospheric opening cover to Lady Spitfire — smoke trails curling behind distant aircraft as the iconic British fighter banks dramatically toward the viewer, its roundels sharp against the brooding clouds. Created by Sébastien Latour and Maza, with a striking painted cover by Philippe Bouchet, this 2014 Belgian album launches "Het luchtmeisje" ("The Air Girl") with real visual swagger. If WWII aviation adventure told through a bold new lens appeals to you, this first volume sets the stage with considerable promise.
