Aberrations

Kenya #3

by Rodolphe, Luiz Eduardo de Oliveira (Leo)

Het ene fenomeen na het andere doet zich er worden vliegende
schotels waargenomen, monstrueuze beesten doemen op en gigantische,
metalen kubussen komen uit de grond naar boven. De Amerikanen denken
dat de Russen bezig zijn met geheime experimenten en de Russen
verdenken de Amerikanen van hetzelfde. Toch wordt er ook gedacht aan
buitenaardse wezens, aan bezoekers uit de ruimte... Maar wat komen
die hier doen, aan de voet van de Kilimanjaro? Miss Austin, agente
van de Britse geheime dienst, de Amerikaanse schrijver John Remington
en de zonderlinge graaf Di Broglie proberen nog steeds een verklaring
te vinden voor al deze mysteries.

We now follow multiple thrilling threads!!! Each engaging and intriguing on its own!!

First the investigator from UK, Kathy, she reports back her findings and animal samples to the head quarters and returns back again

Second, based on her investigations we have a team of scientists into Kenya

Third, two survivors of the original american missing party - Remignton and Judith are taken in by the Count to his palace, where mysterious events on the night wipe them if their samples n proofs of the other wordly creatures

Fourth, a mysterious Irmanius and his team who seem to know more about the other worldly events but are unaware that Kathy and Remington are making a trip from the Count's palace in search of them...

And finally the otherworldly events themselves happen in mind-boggling artwork 🔥🔥🔥

Onto the 4th volume!!

Kathy’s returned to Africa as the mysterious sightings of prehistoric creatures continue. Remington and Judith, meanwhile, are guests of the Baron at his incongruous mansion out on the plains where the Baron shows them the odd artefact poking through the wall of his cellar. Following a power cut they realise somebody is at the mansion’s door, but are thrown into shock when they realise it’s Judith’s missing husband, although his behaviour, and the fact he is so immaculately turned out, suggest to them all is not right – a notion confirmed by the frightening moments that follow.

By the time Kathy arrives the three inhabitants are out for the count, but unharmed, and the cellar’s artefact has vanished leaving a cube-shaped void. The Baron knows of another artefact deep in a closed off mine, but when they arrive to investigate this too has disappeared with no logical explanation as to how it could have been removed.

Back in Washington a disbelieving group are discussing the events half a world away only to be shown photographic evidence of what can only be described as flying saucers, and the sightings seem to be on the increase; something Kathy and Remington are about to experience first-hand.

Even though Leo isn’t writing these there are many similarities in the stories structure and sense of mystery – something beyond humanity’s current comprehension. Rudolph does bring a different rhythm to the story, and being set on Earth the differences between the Aldebaran books and these is significant enough to keep it fresh and interesting. It’s just the underlying enigma and humanity seemingly being out of its depth where similarities are drawn. That said, Leo, still gets an opportunity to draw some weird beasties, which is half the fun, and there’s a cracklingly-good one in this book.

Well written, wonderfully drawn, and utterly curious throughout, this is a book worth following.

This third volume of Rodolphe and Leo's Kenya continues the adventures of Katherine Austin and her companions in investigating the mysterious happenings involving strange animal species and flying lights. Following directly after the previous volume, Encounters , the plot thickens and with more answers seemingly must also come more questions. It is certainly going to be interesting to see where this series ends up going.

Décidément cette série va en s'améliorant. Tout est bon : le dessin, clair, précis; le scénario, ingénieux, le découpage, impeccable.

See volume one for comments. The pace has dropped a bit in this episode. It’s the last one on Kindle Unlimited and it hasn’t given me enough to want to buy the rest.

[Daniel Coste · Rating 3 out of 5]

The tension lowers a bit. New threads and characters introduced, while some get a bit more development.
Feels like a bridge to the next part(s), but it does it's job well.

This series keeps getting better and better!
