Perle Blanche #2

The second volume of Glénat's Perle Blanche series arrives with a striking cover that commands attention: a fierce, red-haired warrior woman — adorned with gold jewelry and wrapped in earthy red and green cloth — dynamically whips a large serpent in a sweeping arc around her powerful frame. Laurence Baldetti and Sébastien Floc'h bring confident energy to this 2011 Franco-Belgian adventure, and the subtitle L'œuvre du serpent ("The Work of the Serpent") hints at mythic, serpent-laced intrigue within. It's a visually bold package that makes a strong case for the series' distinct blend of action and exotic atmosphere.
