From T3 of the series "Les gardiens du Maser" (The Keepers of the Maser), by Turin's Massimiliano Frezzato. I've only read a little so far, but it seems like solid sci-fi / fantasy fare. I'd say the immediate eye-grabber is the art, which delivers some nice, slightly gauzy Juan Gimenez vibes.

Frezzato saw his first story printed at the age of 17, and continued to publish short stories and illustrations during the second half of the '80s. A collection of all his short stories since 1984 was published in 2008. His first series was "Margot," a co-production with American writer Jérôme Charyn, of which two books were published by Glénat in 1990 and 1991. His best-known creation is the 'Maser' series, which runs eight tomes and has been translated to French, German, English and Dutch. Sadly, he passed away at only 57yo in 2024. --LBK & Johnny
