The Extraordinary Adventures of Adèle Blanc-Sec: Pterror Over Paris / The Eiffel Tower Demon by Jacques Tardi
3.0
Adele Blanc-Sec is an adventurer, writer, con-artist and all around bad-ass. She ends up in Paris hunting for a Pterodactyl that is killing people. Then she stumbles across a Babylonian cult that is killing people. All through this adventure, she is dodging people who are trying to kill her.
A good adventure that suffers from too much dialogue in a panel. Author Jasques Tardi could have improved the pacing of this adventure by either drawing more panels to spread the dialogue out or cutting down on the dialogue. This glut of dialogue is also partially due to the work being translated from French and the French BD tradition of long exposition in dialogue.
