Sherman #5

A figure strides purposefully through the smoldering rubble of a devastated cityscape on this striking monochromatic blue cover — the subtitle Les ruines. Berlin setting the mood with quiet devastation. Griffo and Desberg's Sherman continues to deliver atmospheric, noir-inflected storytelling, and this fifth volume promises wartime intrigue amid the ruins of a broken city. Le Lombard's Troisième Vague imprint frames it all with cinematic elegance that makes this 2012 entry genuinely hard to put down unread.
