Luchtpost #3

Against a backdrop of snow-swept mountain peaks, a determined aviator in a heavy leather flight jacket dominates this striking cover — behind him, a vintage propeller aircraft glows warm amber against the cold, wintry scene. This third volume of the Dutch-language biographical series about Saint-Exupéry, subtitled Vriend van de wind, continues Pierre-Roland Saint-Dizier and Cédric Fernandez's portrait of the legendary French author-pilot, with cover art by Rivera that beautifully captures the tension between human resolve and the unforgiving sky. A handsome addition to this 2020 series for anyone drawn to aviation history, literary biography, or accomplished European bande dessinée.
