Thomas Silane #8

The eighth chapter of Thomas Silane brings "Vergif" — Dutch for "Poison" — and the cover by Roberto Zaghi sets a tense, sun-drenched mood immediately. Four figures dominate the foreground: a dark-haired woman gripping a revolver, a steely-eyed man at the center, a blonde woman with a camera, and a fourth figure armed with a pistol, all framed against a vast agricultural field where tractors and SUVs are moving through crop rows in a scene that feels anything but pastoral. With Buendia and Chanoinat's series continuing to blend thriller intrigue with globe-trotting atmosphere, this 2016 Daedalus edition looks like a gripping addition to the run.
