Vasco #7

The seventh chapter of Gilles Chaillet's historical adventure series brings Vasco to the turbulent world of medieval conflict, as this 1988 Le Lombard release presents "De Duivel en de Kathaar." The cover, drawn and inked by Chaillet himself, plunges viewers into a tense confrontation — a cloaked young swordsman at the center, blades drawn and danger pressing in from all sides, while an armored knight looms at the right and a crowned figure stands watch before a walled fortress glowing against a stormy sky. It's a richly atmospheric scene that speaks to the dark political and religious tensions of the era Vasco navigates.
