Mélusine #23

Volume 23 of Clarke's beloved Belgian series pits witches against wizards — as the subtitle Fées contre sorciers boldly declares — and the cover sets the stage with two sharply contrasting figures: Mélusine herself in her signature green witch's outfit and hat facing off against a pink-clad fairy-like opponent, the pair separated by a dramatic burst of light that crackles between them. Published by Dupuis in 2015, this installment keeps the series' signature playful energy alive, promising the kind of lighthearted magical rivalry that has made Mélusine a staple of Franco-Belgian comics for readers of all ages.
