Un long silence #1

Set against a bustling turn-of-the-century city street alive with period-dressed crowds, horse-drawn carriages, and towering brick buildings, Éric Stalner's cover for Un long silence #1 immediately establishes a richly atmospheric historical world. At the center stands a pale, composed man in a light suit clutching a newspaper, flanked by figures who eye him with quiet intensity — a tension that feels quietly loaded. Glénat's 2014 opening chapter, "Le Pink Flamingo," promises the kind of slow-burning, elegantly crafted period drama that rewards patient readers.
