Lanciostory #29
In "Il fante di picche," the fate of young Odette hangs in the balance as a dying count’s final wish sets a tragic course: she must marry Alain on her eighteenth birthday. But with the corrupt doctor who was meant to protect her now hastening the count’s end, Odette finds herself hunted—her life and the count’s hidden fortune now the target of a deadly conspiracy. Paolo Eleuteri Serpieri’s striking artwork brings the story’s gothic tension to life, both in the interior pages and on the cover, rendered in his signature, meticulously detailed style.
