Vasco #13

The thirteenth volume of Gilles Chaillet's beloved medieval series brings Vasco face to face with something decidedly sinister, as the cover art — pencilled and inked by Chaillet himself — presents a brooding close-up of a dark armored knight's helmet, flanked by a companion in similar battle dress, all bathed in the eerie glow of open flame. Looming ominously in the background is a winged, demonic figure that unmistakably evokes Beëlzebub himself, lending the composition a genuinely unsettling atmosphere. "De grafdelvers van Beëlzebub" promises the kind of atmospheric, historically grounded adventure that has made this Le Lombard series a lasting favorite.
