Ster van de woestijn Integraal #[nn]

This handsome integral edition of Ster van de woestijn — the complete collection by writer Stephen Desberg and artist-inker Enrico Marini — presents itself in richly appropriate style: the cover mimics an aged, embossed leather-bound tome, deep brown with ornate gold filigree borders and a striking eight-pointed star at its center. It's the kind of object that feels like a desert relic waiting to be opened, perfectly evoking the series' atmosphere before you've even turned a page. A beautifully crafted 2010 package for readers who want Desberg and Marini's collaboration gathered in one elegant volume.
