Paris Maléfices #2

A lone figure stands dwarfed before a snow-blanketed Notre-Dame de Paris, its great rose window pulsing with an unsettling crimson glow against a blizzard-grey sky — a striking image that sets a brooding, supernatural tone for this second volume of the series. Subtitled L'Or du Millième Matin, this 2014 Delcourt release from Pécau and Dim. D frames the City of Light as something altogether darker and more mysterious. If you're drawn to moody, atmospheric Franco-Belgian storytelling with Paris itself as an ominous character, this one deserves a place on your shelf.
