The Adventures of Blake & Mortimer #7

In "The Affair of the Necklace," Blake and Mortimer arrive in Paris just as their old adversary Olrik slips through their fingers at the start of his trial. Soon drawn into a web of intrigue surrounding the recently restored Marie Antoinette's necklace, the duo must unravel a mystery where history and deception are as dazzling as they are dangerous. Originally crafted by Edgar P. Jacobs, with co-writing by Jérôme Saincantin and full artistic direction by Jacobs himself—including pencils, inks, colors, and lettering—this 2010 Cinebook release captures the classic charm of the series, with Jacobs’ distinctive cover art anchoring the tale’s timeless allure.
