Tempelridder #1

The opening volume of Tempelridder sets a gripping medieval tone with a cover that plunges you straight into the chaos of Crusader warfare. A Knights Templar warrior — white surcoat emblazoned with the red cross, sword raised high and battle cry on his lips — charges forward on a rearing grey destrier, bearing down on a heavily armored opponent crouching beneath a round shield bristling with arrows. Ghostly ranks of soldiers fill the dust-hazed background, giving the scene real scope and weight, all rendered with painterly intensity by Istin, Colak, Leoni, and Jacquemoire. "Tyr intra Muros" promises a story rooted in the siege and street-level drama of the Crusader city of Tyre — a compelling start to the series.
