Tango #4

The fourth chapter of Le Lombard's Tango series brings the action to Quito, Ecuador, and Philippe Xavier's cover sets the mood perfectly — a lone, broad-shouldered man stands tensed against a sweeping cityscape of rooftops and rubble, with a distant monument and volcanic peak rising into a pale blue sky. Xavier and Matz craft a story that feels grounded and geopolitical, and the cover's cool, understated palette gives it a thriller atmosphere that pulls you in before you've turned a single page. If you've been following Tango's journey, "Quitte of dubbel in Quito" looks like exactly the kind of high-stakes, location-driven chapter the series does so well.
