Scurry #3

Two small mice stand at the edge of a precipice, gazing up at a massive, shadowy creature looming against a sky ablaze with fire and embers — it's a breathtaking contrast of vulnerability and danger that Mac Smith renders with real warmth and tension. Subtitled De Vloek van de Schaduw ("The Curse of the Shadow"), this Dutch-language third volume from Silvester promises the kind of intimate, creature-scale adventure that makes the world feel enormous and threatening. If you've been following these tiny heroes through their perilous journey, this 2022 installment looks like a deeply atmospheric next chapter.
