This volume was problem not the best one to start with since it’s the 8th in the series. However, I really liked the premise of this one (at least according to what I understood of the plot). The art is also quite impressive. I will start the series from the beginning so that I can better understand the world. It is famously weird and confusing.

Ništa ih ne zaustavlja u grozničavom gomilanju izumrlih civilizacija.
Neverovatno kako se oseti drastična promena u naraciji! Opet se vraćamo na ono što mi se ni u prvom tomu nije dopalo - zaludno afektiranje, besmislene rečenice i sl. I nekako sam očekivala veći haos, veću dramu, veću eksploziju, da svetovi gore!!! Ali ono što ni ovde nije preskočeno je plitka riba, kojoj kolena klecaju pet sekundi kako je ugledala frajera Slouna i koja dekriptuje stvari, pazi sad, Mocartovim Rekvijemom! Jeboteeee... 🤯 🤬
Jako me nervira što je odnos Šan-Sloun mogao biti bolje i jače predstavljen i više iskorišćen, htela sam da me taj odnos dotuče i smrvi... taj odnos nekoga ko je/želi biti Bog i onog ko odbija da mu klekne, a možda sam previše očekivala Grifita i Gaca ovde (Džokera-Betmena, Šerloka-Morijartija, Musašija-Kođira, prof X-Magneta...), nemam pojma. Jasno mi je da Sloun ne može Šanu biti na pameti svake sekunde svog bivstvovanja, zapravo može i mora samo ne može i ne treba ovde na papiru i to je ok, ali i dalje mi je falilo još te njihove duhovne S&M veze. Kao da sam htela da bude još dublja i jača, neraskidivija... Ne umem to bolje objasniti. Sve vreme mi lebdi u glavi da smrt jednog znači i kraj za drugog! Ta neraskidiva spona, taj osećaj koji lebdi u etru, taj momenat spoznaje mi se u Slounu jako dopada, ali nekako mi ga je nedovoljno, treba mi JOŠ te ogoljene igre moći i opsesije! Ono što mi je Drije pružio u vizuelnom, to mi je Miura pružio u psihološkom segmentu, zapravo me psihološki smrvio. E, to mi fali u Haosu! To što se naziralo, nagoveštavalo, osećalo u Gejlu, ovde je dotaknuto i ostavljeno tako nekako površno i nedovršeno. Baš šteta, jer je ovo moglo biti tako jbno epskih razmera, al' ostasmo na kosmičkom blowjob-u, jednom izletu Silver Surfera i statuama u erekciji.
Uvek si mi se suprotstavljao, a opet si se s toliko strasti vraćao k meni!

And now I must buy volume 9 before I may read it....

Another impressive and gorgeous piece of art. Our masculine ubermench hero Lone Sloane is awoken from his death hibernation by a skilled female prowler. Together, they defeat the henchmen, face the evil emporor of the galaxy, and engage in all matter of pulp and bright. The art, as always, is over the top, psychadelic baroque, and it's the most amazing thing since sliced bread!

Pas le meilleur album des aventures de Lone Sloane, mais une très belle fin (ou renouveau) pour ce héros emblématique. Les illustrations de Druillet sont toujours aussi belles et détaillées, c'est un vrai plaisir d'observer ses décors et mondes tout droit sortis de son imagination.

The most straightforward of all the Sloane stories in both art and plot and also the least memorable. Still makes for a good read though.

This was not good. I don't know if it was exceptionally poorly translated, or just exceptionally poorly written, but the actual writing itself makes no sense. Not in a "Wow, this is crazy" way, but in a literal "I know what those words mean, but in that order, in this context, they don't make sense.." way. I had no idea what was going on at any point, which is pretty standard for the Druillet stuff I've read, but the artwork here is no longer interesting enough to make that okay. I was super excited to get this, but sadly I'd say it's not worth the effort unless "baffled" is a feeling you really enjoy the experience of.

I dunno what's happening, man, but this Druillet can draw a fucking picture.
