Luchtpost #1

A young aviator in a leather flight coat and flowing white scarf stands before a rugged biplane on a sun-bleached desert landscape — an immediate visual promise of adventure and isolation at the heart of this Dutch-language graphic novel. Luchtpost #1, "De heer van het zand," opens writer Pierre-Roland Saint-Dizier and artist Cédric Fernandez's biographical series inspired by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, with cover art by Rivera that perfectly captures the romance and solitude of early airmail flight. For anyone drawn to stories of courage, vast skies, and the golden age of aviation, this 2019 Dark Dragon Books release is a compelling place to start.
