Translated by Alexis Siegel.
Illustrated by
Emmanuel Guibert.
This graphic novel is part farce, part Victorian melodrama, with a generous splash of noir. It starts with Lillian Bowell on the arm of her nattily dressed mummified beau, Pharaoh Imhotep IV. The unlikely couple embarks on some offbeat adventures, brought to life with Guibert's skillful brushwork and shadowy muted palette. This French import will wow graphic novel aficionados and newcomers.
