Gastronomique #1
You’ll want to take a bite out of NYT-bestselling writer Marguerite Bennett’s all-new erotic body horror and historical thriller, with sensual and stomach-turning art from Eisner-nominated illustrator Helena Masellis!
Tarrare the cannibal may be compelled to eat, but Lady Charlotte (codename: The Python) is a cold-blooded spy compelled to hunt. A visceral game of cat-and-mouse begins as Lady Charlotte hunts down the elusive cannibal stalking the streets of France during the revolution, and she’ll stop at nothing to pursue her prey! Lady Charlotte’s quest for revenge is aided by her former lover Zélie, and together they explore the seedy underbelly of Paris and each other in a hypnotic fever dream.
Prepare to swoon over industry veteran and GLAAD-nominated writer Marguerite Bennett (ODIN, Bombshells, Batwoman)’s blood-lusty tale bursting at the seams with vengeance, unbridled sexuality, and most importantly, horror! After all, there’s nothing scarier than a woman’s voracious appetite.

J’aime bien les 10 premières pages de l’artiste. Mais dès la 11e, la qualité des visages baissent de manière flagrante. Je ne sais pas si ça contribue à accentuer le côté grotesque et la sensation de malaise, si ça reflète un soucis pour respecter une deadline.
C’est dommage parce que certaines planches ne sont pas sans rappeler le taff de Jae Lee.
J’avais juste préco ce premier numéro, mis en avant par Pulp’s lors des préco (-50%). Je n’irai pas plus loin.
The revolution rages as the streets of Paris run red with blood. But the endless executions are barely making a dent in the people’s appetites — or the cannibal Tarrare’s.
Charlotte and Zelie’s pursuit of the killer takes a steamy turn as their reignited passions result in a night of lusty reconnection, as well as a vision of their next lead: the Royal Menagerie.
Will it prove to be the perfect place to capture their murderous prey?
