Natasja #21

Natasja races headlong across a rocky, smoke-filled landscape on this 2010 Marsu Productions cover, her blonde hair flying as a vehicle erupts in flames behind her — François Walthéry's linework capturing both the danger and the determined energy that have made this Belgian series so beloved. Titled "De blik van het verleden" ("The Gaze of the Past"), the album teams writer Mythic with Thierry Martens to bring the adventure. It's a vivid, kinetic cover that promises plenty of thrills for fans of Franco-Belgian comics at their most spirited.
