Alix Senator #12

A group of figures poling a raft through sun-drenched Egyptian waters, with pyramids rising in the amber haze behind them and enormous crocodiles surging up from the depths — this cover for *Alix Senator* #12 from Splitter Verlag immediately sets a mood of tense, atmospheric adventure in the ancient world. Subtitled *Die Scheibe des Osiris*, the issue draws on the rich mythology of Egypt, and the beautifully rendered golden palette by the creative team of J. Martin, V. Mangin, and Th. Démarez makes every detail feel vivid and immersive. At 16.00 EUR, it's a compelling entry in this long-running Franco-Belgian series for anyone drawn to historical adventure with a mythological edge.
