Uchronie[s] - New Harlem #1

Set against the shadowy, rain-slicked streets of an alternate Harlem, this opening volume of Corbeyran and Tibery's Uchronie[s] series immediately establishes an atmosphere thick with tension — two imposing men in dark suits flank a young boy in a red jacket, the city's grim architecture looming behind them. The stark, cinematic cover art by Tibery sets a brooding tone that promises a story of power, danger, and uneasy alliances. New Harlem Tome 1, subtitled "Rapt," is a compelling entry point into what looks to be a richly imagined alternate-history world.
