On dit qu'une bonne vengeance peut attendre. C'est faux.. Une bonne vengeance doit attendre. Pour se préparer. Pour se déguiser. . Pour surprendre.

About the author

Yves Sente was born in Brussels in 1964. When he was little, he read La Marque Jaune, Jacobs' masterpiece, over and over again. Little did he know at that age that The Adventures of Blake and Mortimer would determine his destiny...!
In 1998, while he was working for Le Lombard, he worked with the cartoonist André Juillard on the script of La machination Voronov, a new episode of the Blake and Mortimer, a Cold War story acclaimed by critics and the public. Yves Sente then went on to write Les Sarcophages du 6e continent, where he reveals the young life of Professor Mortimer. He confirmed his writing talents with La Vengeance du Comte Skarbek (Dargaud; The Revenge of Count Skarbek, Europe Comics) and then Thorgal (Le Lombard; Cinebook/Europe Comics in English), taking over for Jean Van Hamme alongside Rosinski.

[Diz · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is even better than the first volume, particularly towards the end of the story. There are so many twists that the story ends in a place that you wouldn't expect. The interesting thing about the twists is that the story of Count Skarbek is told in different versions, and as you hear each version of the story you come closer to the truth, but in the end you wonder if you have really heard the truth. This is relevant to life in the modern world where sometimes stories have more power than truth. The art as in the first volume is amazing.

Yves Sente construye un buen guión lleno de intrigas y giros efectistas aunque bien articulados. Las ilustraciones de Rosinski son excepcionales y muy acertadas para una historia de pintores ambientada en el París de inicios del Siglo XIX.

No le doy la 5 estrella por el final que tiene pero me parece muy bueno toda su trayectoria

Vor allem die Zeichnungen haben mich wieder sehr begeistert und das Autorenteam auf meine Wunschliste gesetzt - detailliert werden die Charaktere zum Leben erweckt, so dass es fast kaum Text braucht, um der Geschichte zu folgen.
Der plot hat meines Erachtens im zweiten Band ein klein wenig nachgelassen, dennoch habe ich das Buch gerne gelesen und kann es weiterempfehlen.

After a fascinating first volume, this second episode is quite disappointing. The graphics are disappointing, but the plot is just a double jump to nowhere. Lack of tension, lack of interest... when you start to savour the complexity of a character, they are destroyed in an extravagant succession of murders, disappearances and emptyness.

Of course the cover resembles Halle Berry, but would she have ever accepted that role?

Świetny scenariusz i wykonanie. Paryż lat 40.-tych XIX wieku to mekka artystów, a także Polaków, którzy uciekli terenów Polski po upadku powstania listopadowego. Poza tym mnóstwo wspaniałych małych dzieł sztuki na niewielkiej powierzchni.

Fin de la vengeance de Skarbek. Pas grand chose à ajouter par rapport au premier tome. Thème archi banal, mais traitement graphique somptueux, ça rachète presque tout...

[Charlotte · Rating 4 out of 5]

Suffers a bit from "tell not show", but the art is superb and the story engaging. Twist upon twist is piled up until the reader nearly loses his footing, but is ultimately satisfied.

Prachtig geschilderde prenten en een aantal vermakelijke plottwists houden je als lezer bij de les.
