Plankgas #4

The cover of this first volume in the Traject series sets an immediate, visceral tone: a sleek green vintage racer numbered 26 collides with another car that has been sent tumbling violently through the air, debris scattering across a pale blue sky. Johannes Roussel's linework captures both the mechanical detail of the inverted car's exposed chassis and the raw energy of the crash with impressive precision. "Twee Ronden" (Two Laps) promises a motorsport story from writer Roger Seiter with plenty of high-stakes tension right from the starting grid.
