In Simpleton 's collection
Description
Une page explosive, toute en tension où Dr Strange (Oui, c'est bien lui, sous l'apparence de Cagliostro !), se prépare à affronter le Baron Mordo (sa Nemesis originelle), tout en écrivant un petit mot d'amour à sa compagne Cléa, qui le lira deux siècles plus tard...
Artistiquement, cette page est presque trop belle ,avec ses portraits impressionnants des personnages-clés de la série et son ambiance magique, toute en ombres et lumières, en éclairs et en fumées.
En quelques numéros à peine, Frank Brunner a déjà atteint les sommets ! A ses côtés, Neal Adams et ses Crusty Bunkers composent un encrage solide et tout en nuances...
