London calling #3

Two young men caught in the chaos of Thatcher's England — the cover of London Calling Part 3 plunges you straight into a street brawl, figures stumbling and scrambling across a murky, tension-filled scene rendered in moody earth tones by Sylvain Runberg and Phicil. Subtitled Le Grand Soir, this concluding volume of the three-part series promises a reckoning for its two Marseillais protagonists dropped into the heart of a turbulent Britain. A compelling Franco-Belgian take on a charged historical moment, it's a satisfying finish to one of 2010's more politically alive bandes dessinées.
