Roodbaard #9

The ninth volume in Sherpa's Roodbaard series brings together three swashbuckling adventures — "De vermisten van 'De zwarte valk'," "Het vervloekte goud van Huacapac," and "De stad van de dood" — by the creative team of Jijé, Lorg, Gaty, and Charlier. The deep-blue cover draws you in with a striking circular vignette: two tricorn-hatted figures face each other in a rain-soaked night, their hard features illuminated by the warm, flickering glow of a single candle lantern — one of them unmistakably sporting the famous red beard. It's an atmospheric, almost conspiratorial scene that perfectly captures the brooding tension this pirate series is known for.
