Sophaletta #8

The eighth volume of Glénat's Sophaletta series brings the adventure to a snow-blanketed Russian landscape, with the title "La rescapée d'Ekaterinodar" — "The Survivor of Ekaterinodar" — setting a tense, atmospheric tone. Dominique Hé's cover places the dark-haired, rifle-carrying Sophaletta front and center in her teal coat and rust-colored scarf, while armed soldiers and a motorcycle with sidecar loom in the wintry village behind her. Writer Érik Arnoux and his creative team deliver another chapter of this sweeping historical series, with Jean-Jacques Chagnaud's cool, frost-tinged palette perfectly evoking the harsh conditions of the era.
