Les Aventuriers du Transvaal #2

The second volume of Les Aventuriers du Transvaal plunges readers into the heart of southern Africa, as the cover — by Jean-Claude Bartoll and Bernard Kollé — shows a determined adventurer in a wide-brimmed hat drawing a pistol amid a tense pursuit through a dusty, red-earthed enclosure, warriors armed with shields closing in from all sides. The subtitle La Mystérieuse Cité d'Ophir promises lost-civilization intrigue to match that visceral, on-the-run energy. Published by Glénat in 2020, this is the kind of globe-trotting adventure comic that makes it very hard to put down.
