Marlene

by Peter Snejbjerg

A lurking terror has infected the town of Malborg. Madness and death haunt the luminous Scandinavian nights, and the victims all seem to have one thing in common: their lust for the voluptous Marlene. As he investigates, ace detective Michael Joergendsen must navigate a dangerous course between his official duties and his own growing fixation with the young woman. Is he on the trail of a supernatural killer, or is it the other way around? And the beautiful Marlene - is she the innocent victim of an obsessive stalker, or is she something more sinister?

Really good pulp horror oneshot. Happens in rural Denmark, which brings in a different wibe.

Miehiä kuolee, Marlene on aina maisemissa. Hmm... Mysteeri on melko kevyt ja taide on groteskia, ei huonoa mutta itse en pitänyt erityisemmin paljaiden elinten runsaasta esittelystä. Tarinakin on vielä heppoinen, pienellä kehittelyllä tämä olisi voinut olla parempi.

Olisi parempiakin sarjakuvia suomennettavaksi kuin tämä murhamysteeri. Tekijä taitaa olla Didier Comèsin faneja.
