Illimité #2

A confident red-haired boy stands front and center on this 2013 Soleil release, clutching a glowing holographic device crackling with blue energy, while two companions — a cool, sunglasses-wearing girl in a gaming tee and a stockier, wide-eyed boy — flank him against a deep blue, star-touched background. The subtitle La Nuit des étoiles filantes ("The Night of the Shooting Stars") sets a sense of nocturnal adventure perfectly matched by the luminous, tech-charged atmosphere of the cover. From the creative team of Ferré, Bonnin, Khaled, and Lathelize, this second chapter of Illimité looks like a treat for fans of youthful, science-tinged comics.
