Here’s one more gorgeous, unique cover by LEO & colorist Marchal from Amazonia’s final book.

The year is 1949, and all the pieces of the puzzle around a strange creature and his extraordinary powers begin to reveal themselves and come together. In the humidity of the Amazon, agent Austin and Captain Délio finally come across the stranded German submarine. This time, the treasure they’re looking for is within reach! But they must act quickly, because gold fever spares no one, neither the Brazilian secret services, nor the fleeing Nazis, not to mention the cannibal tribes that roam the area… --BDT

Yes, I’m afraid this series dipped in to the age-old “lost Nazi gold” trope, but it still managed to avoid falling in to overt stereotypes for the most part. For example, it was nice to see an MI6 officer (in Kathy Austin) who wasn’t stamped in the typical James Bond-type role & mindset. Also interesting in that she’s primarily focused on finding a local humanoid with paranormal qualities, whilst everyone else is seemingly after the stashed gold, with both things occupying the same maze-like branches of the mighty Amazon.

There was also a pretty amusing nod to Hergé’s Bianca Castafiore, whose counterpart diva – you guessed it – can’t help bursting in to Faust’s The Jewel Song at every opportunity. Still though, as usual with Rodolphe & LEO, there’s a careful avoidance of going heavy on the humor, drama and overt eroticism in order to better focus on the core story. On the whole, I found this a good, solid adventure with satisfying art, which will appeal to fans of this specific genre / timeline, as well as fans of the artist-writer team, who already completed two series in this set.
