Rik Ringers - Tweede tijdperk #7

A striking close-up of a bandaged figure with dark sunglasses and vivid red streaks cutting across the wrappings dominates this 2023 Le Lombard album — an image that radiates menace and mystery in equal measure. Tibet and A.-P. Duchateau deliver another entry in the Tweede Tijdperk chapter of the long-running Rik Ringers series, and this seventh volume's cover promises something deliciously unsettling. If this bold, graphic composition is any indication, fans of the Belgian thriller tradition are in for a tense ride.
