New Cherbourg Stories #4

Pierre Gabus and Romuald Reutimann's New Cherbourg Stories continues with Les Danses de Saint-Elme, and this fourth volume from Casterman opens with a cover that immediately sets an unsettling, atmospheric tone. A figure in white is suspended helplessly mid-air within a swirling green miasma, seemingly pulled upward by a hulking, shadowy creature, while scattered wine bottles and a wicker basket litter the ground below. It's a beautifully eerie image that hints at something strange and folkloric lurking beneath the surface of this coastal French universe.
