1203. Constantinople is besieged ... by the<br />

Christians of the 4th Crusade! Under cover<br />

of night, a small group of knights flees the<br />

doomed city. They’re taking three mysterious<br />

chests to Antioch — but never reach their<br />

destination. Nowadays, in Rome, Agent Reilly<br />

has come with a Professor Sharafi to request<br />

access to the Vatican’s archives. But once<br />

inside, he reveals that the document they’re<br />

here to consult is one that the Church doesn’t<br />

want anyone to see…<br />

“I can think of a few examples where novels<br />

have been adapted to comic series, but not<br />

any thrillers, like this one. It’s quite an undertaking,<br />

and the execution is done well.<br />

Whether it’s a happy accident that it works so<br />

well with the breaks and beats of a four-part<br />

series I don’t know, but it does work, never<br />

feeling forced, rushed or lacking in pace. I certainly<br />

don’t feel I need to read the novel now<br />

as well — this will serve nicely.”Simon Chadwick,<br />

12+ 1. The Dead Man<br />

Pbk: 48pp, 21.7 x 28.7 cm<br />

After a botched robbery that claimed the<br />

life of his lover, an American outlaw crosses<br />

the border into Canada. As he’s already left<br />

nearly a dozen dead bodies behind, Sergeant<br />

Trent is sent to intercept him. But instead<br />

of the expected bloodthirsty murderer, it’s a<br />

sensitive young man that the Mountie finds, a<br />

free spirit with a deep love of French poetry.<br />

How is Trent going to reconcile doing his duty<br />

with his nascent liking for the kid?<br />

“But the character’s feelings,<br />

WITH VAGUE<br />

profound<br />

humanity, his daydreaming tendencies give<br />

him an intimate dimension that is quite<br />

rare in adventure comics. That doesn’t<br />

mean you’re ever bored, though, and<br />

Trent’s adventures are models of originali-<br />

quences.”<br />

the French)<br />
