Le Roi Cyclope #2

Part of Delcourt's Terres de Légendes imprint, this 1998 second volume of Isabelle Dethan's Le Roi Cyclope carries the subtitle "Les sept frères" — and the cover sets a distinctly eerie, mythic tone. Seven robed figures in cool blue-grey tones surround a solitary white-haired figure draped in a dark red cloak, their hollow-eyed faces lending an unsettling, spectral quality to the scene. Dethan's artwork balances quiet menace with elegant restraint, making this a compelling entry in her fantasy series.
