“Les bêtes d'acier”

In "Les bêtes d'acier," Russ Manning delivers a sleek, suspenseful tale as Mekman unleashes a new wave of chaos by deploying animal-shaped robots to sabotage North Am’s food supply. With the help of Danae and her uniquely enhanced creatures, Magnus and Leeja race to uncover the source of the attacks before the system collapses. The story, illustrated in Manning’s sharp, kinetic style, features a striking cover by George Wilson that captures the mechanical menace of the animal disguises.
