Alix Senator #1
Opening the long-running Alix saga's mature continuation, this 2012 Casterman album introduces us to an older, silver-haired Alix draped in a white Roman toga trimmed with red — his gaze steady and weathered, every bit the seasoned senator the title promises. Thierry Démarez's cover art renders him with striking sculptural dignity against a warm, muted background, setting a tone that feels more political thriller than boyhood adventure. With Valérie Mangin scripting "Les aigles de sang," this first volume looks poised to bring genuine dramatic weight to one of Franco-Belgian comics' most enduring heroes.
