Le chant des Stryges #10

The second season of Le Chant des Stryges kicks off with "Manipulations," a 2006 Delcourt album that immediately signals darker, more treacherous territory. Richard Guérineau's cover sets a brooding, purple-drenched mood: a dangerous, leather-clad woman armed with a pistol dominates the foreground, while behind her a lone figure confronts a crouching opponent on a moonlit dock — all overshadowed by the looming, scarred face of a menacing presence. With Éric Corbeyran's writing and Guérineau's atmospheric artwork colored by Christian Favrelle, this volume promises intrigue and tension in equal measure.
