Prometheus #13

Titled "Contact," this thirteenth volume in Christophe Bec's Prometheus series presents a quietly arresting cover by Antoine Carrion: a group of five figures in varied attire — some in spacesuits, others in what appears to be medieval armor — stand together gazing upward at an enormous, otherworldly entity looming against a dramatic sky, its vast silhouette backlit by an eerie radiant glow. The contrast between the small, vulnerable humans below and the colossal alien presence above immediately conveys the sense of a momentous, unsettling encounter. With a sprawling creative team including artists Emmanuel Roudier, Mario Alberti, Thierry Démarez, and others, this 2018 Daedalus release promises the ambitious, multi-layered science-fiction storytelling the series is known for.
