Masqué #1

A solitary, masked figure perches on a Haussmann-era rooftop, gazing out over a transformed Paris where sleek futuristic towers rise beside the Eiffel Tower and searchlights sweep a sky filled with hovering aircraft. Lehman and Créty launch Masqué with this striking first volume, "Anomalies," published by Delcourt in 2012 — a series that plants a superhero sensibility firmly in a reimagined French capital. The cover's blend of the familiar and the strange sets an intriguing tone for whatever anomalies await within.
