Le Fils de l'officier #3

A wounded young man staggers desperately across a golden wheat field, his white shirt stained with blood, while a line of uniformed soldiers advances through the haze behind him — it's a striking, tension-filled image that sets the tone for this wartime drama from Bamboo Édition. Le Fils de l'officier Vol. 3, subtitled La Tête en feu, brings together the talents of Patrice Ordas, Patrick Cothias, and Christelle Galland in what promises to be a gripping chapter of this French historical series. Published in 2014, this album delivers the kind of atmospheric, emotionally charged storytelling that makes European bande dessinée so compelling.
