Relieken #1

Angel Unzueta's cover for this 2013 Belgian album sets an immediate tone of brooding intensity: a battle-scarred warrior with long silver hair stands victorious in a dim, cavernous space, sword lowered at his side and a white cloak billowing behind him, while a defeated figure lies crumpled at his feet. "Het graf van Lazarus" — The Tomb of Lazarus — promises a dark, historically charged adventure steeped in mystery and violence, and Unzueta's richly painted artwork gives every weathered detail of armor, blood, and shadow a cinematic weight. Written by Sophro and Koldo, Relieken #1 looks like a compelling opening chapter for readers who enjoy gritty European fantasy with ambition to spare.
