Rider on the storm #2

The action shifts to London for the second chapter of Rider on the Storm, and Baudouin Deville's cover sets the scene with real style — a motorcyclist's-eye view from the handlebars of a powerful bike, framing a nervous-looking man in a trench coat standing in the middle of Westminster Bridge, briefcase in hand, with Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament rising behind him and a classic red double-decker bus completing the cityscape. The tension between the anonymous rider and the stranded figure on the bridge hints at a thriller with a distinctly European sensibility, rendered with clean, confident linework. A sharp, atmospheric entry in this 2014 Belgian series.
