Le Scorpion #9

The ninth chapter of Dargaud's acclaimed French adventure series, Le Scorpion arrives in 2010 with "Le Masque de la Vérité" — The Mask of Truth. Enrico Marini's cover is a striking close-up of the Scorpion himself, his bare back turned to reveal the series' signature scorpion tattoo, while his sharp profile and the ornate stonework figures looming behind him hint at intrigue and hidden identities. With both story and art by the Marini–Desberg team, this volume promises the same blend of swashbuckling atmosphere and historical mystery that has made the series a standout of European comics.
