Rex Mundi Volume 4: Crown and Sword (v. 4)
The Monstres branch of the French comics universe Dungeon concentrates on some colorful secondary characters. From the first story, we find out how John-John the Terror was split in two and how he and his friends came to live at the Dungeon. The second tale features Horus and Alcibiades pairing up in an adventure to find a weeping giant and try to stop his stolen eye from crying and flooding the Dungeon. Regular creators Joann Sfar and Lewis Trondheim, abetted by two guests, do a great job of adding dimension to the cast of characters that make the Dungeon run. --Tina Coleman
