Les incontournables de la littérature en BD #[7]

Arthur Conan Doyle's Le Monde Perdu gets a vivid graphic adaptation in this second volume from Glénat's "Les incontournables de la littérature en BD" series. The cover sets the scene dramatically: a hot-air balloon carrying a group of explorers drifts precariously above a landscape patrolled by enormous pterosaurs, their wings spread wide and jaws open in unmistakable menace. It's a beautifully composed 2010 edition — part of a UNESCO-supported collection that brings classic literature to life in bande dessinée form.
