Slhoka #8

Slhoka Band 8 — "Die Nadel der Vergänglichen" — arrives from Finix Comics in 2019, and the cover by Ceyles makes an immediate impression: a white-haired, rune-marked warrior stands at the center of a swirling vortex of crackling blue-white energy, arms at his sides with an air of quiet, formidable power. The cool, ethereal palette of ice-blues and billowing clouds gives the whole image a sense of something vast and otherworldly stirring around him. With Ulrig Godderidge and Oriol Schreibweis on script and Cyril Vincent's colors bringing Ceyles' linework to life, this eighth volume looks like a compelling entry in the series.
