Rex Mundi #12

This September issue of Image's Rex Mundi presents a striking cover set against the backdrop of period newspaper clippings, where two powerful, heavyset men — identified in the visible text as David-Louis Plantard de St. Clair, Duke of Lorraine, and Churchill — shake hands amid a cluster of suited onlookers, the mood equal parts diplomatic ceremony and quiet menace. The newspaper fragments layered behind them hint at high-stakes European politics, royal courts, and clashing ambitions across the continent. With work by Arvid Nelson and Jeromy Cox, it's an atmospheric, historically textured slice of Rex Mundi's alternative-history world.
