Tschaï De waanzinnige planeet #6

Based on Jack Vance's celebrated science fiction saga, this sixth album in the Dutch-language Tschaï — De Waanzinnige Planeet series continues "De Dirdir" with a cover that immediately pulls you in. A confident young man in a striking red jacket stands front and center, weapon at his side, surrounded by a crowd of diverse, oddly dressed figures, while ornate alien spacecraft streak upward into a hazy sky and a ghostly creature looms in the background. Li-An's linework gives the whole scene a wonderful blend of the exotic and the grounded, and with Jean-David Morvan and Sophro steering the story, this 2009 release promises another richly atmospheric chapter on the maddest planet in science fiction.
