Les Quatre Coins du Monde #1

A brooding amber horizon sets the stage for this 2012 Dargaud album, where a silhouetted column of armed riders on horseback and camels crests a desert ridge against a burning sunset sky. Hugues Labiano's cover work immediately signals a sweeping adventure set in arid, unforgiving terrain — figures cloaked and rifle-bearing, moving with quiet menace across the dunes. Les Quatre Coins du Monde opens its first volume with a mood both cinematic and foreboding, promising a journey to the far edges of the world.
