Les Chevaux du vent #1

A lone hiker in a red jacket picks their way across a rocky mountain path, hiking pole in hand, as a sweeping chain of colorful prayer flags dances overhead against a vast Himalayan sky — the snow-capped peak in the distance leaving little doubt about the altitude and ambition of this journey. Fournier and Lax open Les chevaux du vent with a cover that feels both intimate and expansive, capturing the quiet determination of a single figure dwarfed by an awe-inspiring landscape. Published by Dupuis under the Aire Libre imprint in 2008, this first part promises a thoughtful, human-scale adventure set against one of the world's most breathtaking backdrops.
