Le fléau des dieux #3

The third volume of Le fléau des dieux arrives with a cover that commands immediate attention: a colossal green-lit statue of an armored, winged warrior looms overhead, sword raised, while a lone robed figure stands diminutively in a shaft of brilliant white light far below. The stark contrast between the towering divine form and the solitary human silhouette sets a tone of awe and weight that feels entirely fitting for a series whose title translates as "The Scourge of the Gods." Published by Soleil in 2002, this French-language album subtitled Urbi et Orbi promises the grand mythological scale that has made this series a compelling read.
