Adler #4

Two young, white-haired figures move cautiously through a dense, flame-lit jungle, rifles at the ready — it's a striking cover image that sets an immediate tone of tension and danger for "Dernière Mission," the fourth volume in René Sterne's *Adler* series. Sterne's linework, both pencilled and inked by his own hand, gives the lush tropical foliage a vivid, almost oppressive presence around the two protagonists. Published by Le Lombard in 1992, this French-language adventure looks like a compelling chapter in what is clearly a richly illustrated action series.
