:) Hi!

An other very beautifull comic book,

The Fourth Power by Juan Gimenez (firt edition 1989)
(painted in watercolor and indian ink)

Juan Gimenez which remains one of my comic strip designer favorite...

The history:

On the war-ravaged planet Alpha Nebulae, a fighter pilot named Mega mysteriously escapes
certain death when attacked by an enemy patrol.
So begins her perilous journey across enemy lines. Along the way, she saves a young doctor,
who was a member of a flight crew sent to rescue her.
The doctor reveals to Mega that shes of utmost importance to their leaders in connection with
the creation of a new weapon of incredible powera weapon that her burgeoning mental abilities will fuel.
They will stop at nothing to control herto control the Fourth Power.


Here some extract in English version:









You will not be disappointed, happy reading...  ;) ;) ;) ;)

I'm not familiar with the Johnny Red comic series but there is a website dedicated to it:

http://www.falconsquadron.sevenpennynightmare.co.uk/

And they seem to have digitalized (all?)the albums which can be viewed here:
