Jazz is all the rage in the smoky nightclubs of Paris, but kings still sit on the thrones of Europe, and the Holy Inquisition maintains order with an iron fist. Far from prying eyes, sorcerers practice magical arts rumored to have been founded in Biblical times. Amidst this setting, thunderheads of a cataclysmic war are gathering. This Issue: THE PUZZLE IN THE PAINTING ? Master Physician Julien Sauniére confronts the Holy Inquisition for the first time, in front of the smoking ruins of Father Marin's home. Julien returns to his practice and discovers a letter written by the father the day before; a letter pointing to a 300-year-old clue to the disappearance of the mysterious scroll. And for the first time in many years, he meets an old friend and an old lover. FC, 24pp $2.95 Bimonthly ongoing series Cover price $2.95.
