Description

Jason McLane, a.k.a. XIII, seems to have finally accepted his true destiny. Tired of fighting the powerful elite who control the world, he has apparently joined them. Of course, he supposedly did so on orders from General Wolf, so as to bring down the sinister Mayflower Foundation at last, but what if the temptation of power proved too strong? Janet Fitzsimmons, the Foundation's president, too beautiful? Or the price of integrity too steep for him or his friends?

Yves Sente began writing scripts in 1999 and has already acquired considerable clout, being chosen as successor to Van Hamme for the series Thorgal and the sequel to XIII and working with Van Hamme on Blake & Mortimer. Arrived from Russia with his first completed project in hand, Youri Jigounov proved himself to the Franco-Belgian comic scene with series Alpha, so much so that his elegant, precise art was chosen to succeed William Vance's.
