Behind this cover teaser I was wondering what could give this comic is cool, but it makes you hungry for more because only the first volume ... + + + The back cover + + +
Great opening night at the Metropolitan Museum in New York presents the fabulous treasures of the Vatican. Four riders then arise from nowhere, sowing terror in front of cameras after stealing several items! One of them turns out to be particularly precious, concealing some secrets that were believed buried forever ... Tess, an archaeologist who witnessed the scene, and Sean, an FBI agent, will conduct an investigation whose outcome will prove decisive for the Christian world! The ultimate secret of the Templars will he finally revealed?

Originally released as a novel by Raymond Khoury was right here in illusatration BD format. To know if the novel is richer than the comics, hard to say since this first volume is basically a good introduction. The plot is in place, the clues are there and make us want to see the rest ... but hey, I'll wait until my local library will provide more.
course after Da Vinci Code and other Indiana Jones begins to saturate a little story about the Knights Templar. And yet it continues to fascinate the point where I allow myself to want to have. Level of the story is not poorly constructed. Coverage suggests an alternate history or a trip time, but soon you realize that it's a pretty impressive staging and media. Narrative side, we begin by holy war and the fall of Jerusalem, the Templars quickly carrying a coding machine. Scenes well done and quite impressive, and then tips over into our day with the Templars who land in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC. There, bim bam boom, we decapitated, one slice and one gun with automatic weapons. In passing, steals a few tricks but mostly Aboard decode the machine mentioned above. As part of the treasure of the Vatican, the good lord worshipers will join the FBI investigation because, well, would not touch their treasure (and the vow of poverty in all this then?). And of course, a good little Machiavellian Cardinal joins history and seems to be not so Catholic that seems at first.
History seems not bad, and like all historical thriller, one is quickly drawn into the subject. What always makes me fear that the fall in there, is what the end will be worth all the tension set up during the preceding pages it? We'll see. Meanwhile, "The Last Templar" in its format novel was translated into 38 different languages. We'll see if the content is worth the commercial success of the book.
Graphically Michael Lalor gives us something quite classic in the genre but not displease me. It is familiar ground therefore remains the story to hang. Certainly not something exceptional, but something like that, or at least to me.
Finally, a good first teaser. Better than what I thought. We'll see what gives the result.
