“BD” refers to Franco-Belgian comics, but let's open things up to include ALL Euro comics and GN's. Euro-style artistry from around the world is also welcome. ^^

* BD = "Bandes dessinées"

This is a fun series I've been reading recently. A pirate captain's lady love was tortured and killed physically, but due to sorcerous machinations, her spirit is able to hang on... barely. Hannibal must soon find a fabled artifact in order to fully restore her, else she's a goner. Unfortunately, some dangerous, undead witches are also after the treasure, and are quite content with wiping our antiheroes out in the process.

I thought this was a well-realised tale, regardless of the mashup of paranormal angles, and overall a bit in the style of Belladonna (reviewed previously). This one feels slightly more contrived in places, but it moves with a purpose, and features gorgeous art. It's certainly one of the better pirate-themed series I've read, bringing some unusual new wrinkles in to the genre. Written by Jean-Luc Istin, with Sandrine Cordurié inking Créty's pencils.
