Polstar #3

Jean Leturgie and Simon Leturgie's Polstar continues with "L'Empire," the third installment from John Eigrutel Productions. The cover draws you in with a moody, dark palette — a large orange-furred figure cradles a young girl protectively, while two armed men with flashlights and pistols close in from opposite sides. It's a tense, stylishly rendered standoff that sets an intriguing tone for this 1999 French-language adventure.
