Description

It is 1947, fourteen years after the victory of Kong over the US military. Manhattan Island has been evacuated and is now a no-go zone. These are the adventures of the pilots of the elite squadron tasked with watching over Kong's new domain, where, rumor has it, strange things have started happening... Eric Hérenguel's black and white drawngs are amazing! It was obvious to us that a deluxe edition was required in order to do justice to this masterpiece, which is why we created this beautiful large format artist's edition which features the original color scans of the first three issues of The Kong Crew, as well as a lot of illustrations, an interview and bonus material (promotional drawings, prints, postcards, convention posters, patches, etc.).
