Spécial USA #23
"Tam-tam pour Manhattan" delivers a wild, globe-trotting adventure from Jaime Hernandez, whose dynamic art and storytelling bring Maggie and Rand Race to a jungle realm where dinosaurs roam and a ruthless dictator holds sway. With vibrant colors by Évelyne Tranlé and sharp lettering by Martine Ségard, this 1986 special from Albin Michel is a standout, all rendered under the striking cover by Enki Bilal.
In "Mechanics," Maggie and Rand Race are sent to a jungle country where dinosaurs still roam and a ruthless dictator rules with an iron fist, tasked with repairing a downed ship in a place where danger is as much a part of the landscape as the ancient beasts. The story unfolds with quiet tension and a sense of isolation, as the two engineers navigate both mechanical failures and the oppressive weight of a society on the edge.
In "Le chouchou du prof," P'Gell arrives at a prep school as a new teacher, drawing attention with her charm and quiet intensity. When Dick Whittler asks the Spirit to look into her sudden presence, the investigation uncovers a web of secrets tied to Prof Acyd’s mysterious formula—something P'Gell seems determined to claim.
