Жан Роллен, Николас Девил «Saga de Xam»

This book is in French and the artwork in this book is mind blowing. Phillipe Druillet is among the talented artists who worked on this project. It is a spectacular visual experience. It's based on a story by Jean Rollin. He wrote it in French. Large size book (13 inches by 10 inches tall) is impressive. The quality of it is more like a fine art book rather than a comic book. It's an early graphic novel. There's a drawing of Frank Zappa and The Mothers Of Invention in it for some reason.

The beautiful pages of «Saga» were originally drawn on large size sheets, that have been reduced to a «book» size, resulting in a very small text, as the book needed to have a magnifier enclosed to read most of the captions and dialogues. The book is printed on paper of 300 grams.
