Dans la paume du diable #2

The concluding volume of Dans la paume du diable arrives with a cover that feels like a noir film poster come to life. Mathieu Mariolle and Kyko Duarte's striking composition layers three tinted vignettes — two suited men in tense confrontation, a tearful woman nursing a drink — behind bold black silhouettes of a standing femme fatale and a seated man gesturing against a red cityscape backdrop. Subtitled Les Mirages de Bugsy, this 2016 Glénat release promises a world of shadow, glamour, and moral ambiguity right up to its final page.
