Alix Senator #1

A mature, commanding Alix stands at the center of this striking 2013 Splitter Verlag cover, draped in a Roman toga as twin eagles wheel through a storm-lit sky behind him — lightning crackling over ancient colonnades while shadowy figures move in the background. Thierry Démarez brings a painterly gravitas to the artwork, capturing both the grandeur and the tension of Rome at its most dramatic. Writers Valérie Mangin and Tanja Krämling launch this new chapter — "Die blutigen Flügel" — promising a story where power, intrigue, and the eternal city collide.
