The Shaolin Cowboy #3

A small but self-assured young rider perches atop a donkey silhouetted against a glowing, cloud-streaked sunset sky — a quietly striking image that sets a contemplative, almost mythic tone for this third and final volume. Geof Darrow's linework, brought to life through Dave Stewart's warm colors, gives even this spare cover a rich, atmospheric depth. Le Jambon, le Bouddha et le Tourteau rounds out the trilogy in style, and this French-language Futuropolis edition makes it a handsome addition to any shelf.
