Une enquête de l'inspecteur Canardo #2

Benoît Sokal's cover for this 1982 Casterman album says it all: a massive, snarling cat with glowing amber eyes dominates the scene, its bared fangs looming over a nervous Inspecteur Canardo and a wide-eyed female companion clutching a cigar below. The second installment in the Canardo series, La marque de Raspoutine showcases Sokal's sharp eye for atmospheric menace and dark humor, blending anthropomorphic noir with a distinctly European sensibility.
