Nico #2

The second volume of Nico arrives with a cover by Philippe Berthet that immediately pulls you into an underwater world of tension and intrigue. Framed through a massive circular porthole, a blonde woman in a black swimsuit raises a pistol while behind her lurks a menacing mechanical crab-like submersible, its bulbous eyes and articulated limbs rendered in striking gold against the deep blue of the sea. Fred Duval and Berthet's "Operatie Caraïben" promises a sleek, stylish adventure that blends espionage cool with science-fiction flair in this 2010 Dargaud release.
