Napoleon #2

The second volume of Daedalus's ambitious three-part biographical series finds Napoleon at the height of his imperial power — and Fabrizio Fiorentino's cover captures that grandeur with striking intensity. Napoleon is rendered in full imperial regalia, his hands raised to hold aloft a golden laurel wreath, the crimson and white of his robes framing a steely, determined expression, while a vast military procession stretches dramatically across the top of the image. With Noël Simsolo's script and Fiorentino handling every aspect of the artwork, this 2018 release promises a visually rich and historically grounded portrait of one of history's most compelling figures.
