Le Corps à l'ombre #[nn]

A rainy, shadowy forest sets an immediately unsettling tone on David de Thuin's cover for this Glénat release — two figures sweep a flashlight beam through the dark trees while, below, a body lies sprawled on the ground in vivid, almost jarring color. The contrast between that eerie nocturnal scene and the bright figure below gives Le Corps à l'ombre a distinctly offbeat mystery atmosphere that feels both playful and genuinely tense. A compelling 2016 addition to French-language comics that announces its singular visual style right from the cover.
