Vasco #20

Gilles Chaillet brings his signature atmospheric linework to the cover of this twentieth Vasco adventure, "De McDouglas-clan," depicting a rugged Scottish highland landscape bathed in warm amber and purple hues. Two riders on horseback pick their way along a rocky mountain path, a stone castle visible in the misty distance, while a helmeted warrior's face looms large in the foreground — an imposing presence that sets a mood of clan rivalry and medieval intrigue. Published by Le Lombard in 2005, this album promises the kind of richly detailed historical adventure the series has long delivered.
