Le vol des anges #3

The third volume of Le Vol des Anges brings the Great War to the skies above Britain with "Zeppelin sur la Tamise," and Rivera's cover sets the stage beautifully. Two WWI-era biplanes — one bearing the Iron Cross markings of a German aircraft, the other the roundel of an Allied fighter — fill the frame in a tense aerial encounter, rendered with impressive mechanical detail and a sweeping sense of altitude. Published by Zéphyr BD in 2011, this installment of Wallace and Rivera's series promises the kind of atmospheric, historically-grounded aviation drama that makes this Franco-Belgian series such a compelling read.
