Nautilus #2

A cloaked, helmeted figure seated on an ornate throne dominates the cover of this 2022 Dark Dragon Books release, framed by a massive ship's wheel and viewed through a vast submarine porthole where eerie green depths shimmer behind him — an image that immediately conjures mystery and command. Subtitled "Mobilis in Mobile," this second volume of Nautilus continues Mathieu Mariolle and Mariella Manfré's Jules Verne-inspired series, with Guénaël Grabowski's atmospheric artwork lending the scene a brooding, almost regal tension. If you're drawn to steampunk adventure steeped in the romance of the deep sea, this beautifully crafted Franco-Belgian album deserves a place on your shelf.
