L'Esprit de Lewis #1

From Éditions Métamorphose's Soleil imprint comes this beautifully crafted 2017 French-language album, L'Esprit de Lewis Acte 1, by Santini and Richerand. The sage-green cover draws the eye immediately, its elegant oval centerpiece framing the title in ornate gold lettering while surrounding it with a dreamlike swirl of figures — a bearded man, a younger male character, ethereal feminine forms, and a fox-like creature all woven together in delicate, flowing linework. It's a wonderfully inviting visual promise of a story rich in fantasy and imagination.
