Les Rêves de Milton #2

The opening volume of Les Rêves de Milton sets a quietly haunting tone, with cover art by Maël, Féjard, and Ricard depicting a barefoot, disheveled young man crouched in shadow beneath what appears to be a vast, looming canvas or sail — his expression caught somewhere between exhaustion and unease. Published by Dupuis in 2006 under their Aire Libre imprint, this Franco-Belgian series announces itself as something thoughtful and atmospheric from the very first image. If you're drawn to character-driven stories with a brooding, introspective edge, this one earns a second look.
