Une aventure des Spectaculaires #4

By creators Hautière and Poitevin, this fourth adventure of Les Spectaculaires plunges the team into a thrilling early-automobile race, as the cover shows a goggled driver charging through the French countryside aboard a rattling racer numbered "2," with a milestone marking the road to Berlin in the foreground and the Eiffel Tower shimmering on the horizon. Above the dust and drama, two more of the Spectaculaires — one caped, one winged — swoop through the sky, lending the chase a wonderfully chaotic, larger-than-life energy. A charming blend of Belle Époque adventure and ensemble camaraderie, Les Spectaculaires Dépassent les Bornes looks like exactly the kind of exuberant romp that makes this Rue de Sèvres series such a delight.
