Meridia #3

The third chapter of Thierry Gloris and Joël Mouclier's Meridia arrives with a cover that sets a genuinely unsettling tone: a gaunt, pale figure in dark robes holds a glowing orb aloft beneath Gothic arches, while a younger, red-clad companion leans in close — their expressions suggesting curiosity and unease in equal measure. Le roi pourri ("The Rotten King") promises the kind of medieval dark fantasy that Delcourt does so well, with Mouclier's richly atmospheric painted art giving every shadow a sense of creeping dread. A compelling entry in the series for fans of European fantasy with a gothic edge.
