Scotland #4

Episode 4 of Les Missions Fantastiques de Kathy Austin plunges deeper into the extraordinary, with Marchal's cover depicting a lone diver in a yellow wetsuit descending toward a massive, luminous crystalline structure resting on the ocean floor — its geometric facets glowing with an otherworldly teal light against the shadowy underwater cavern. Coiling around the base of that strange formation is what appears to be a giant octopus, lending the scene an air of both wonder and quiet menace. By the fourth installment, the creative team of Rodolphe, Leo, and Marchal has clearly settled into a confident groove, and this 2025 Dargaud release promises another visually stunning chapter in Kathy Austin's fantastic adventures.
