THE HEAVENLY LOCKS (Rouge; Allot/ Rodolphe) 1986-1998

The Gates of Avalon

Gwen and Tiffen meet the witch (?) Isengre through a wounded gnome. She predicts a royal future for him. The tattoo on Gwen's shoulder will play an important role. Elves, giants, bears and a princess of Avalon should make us forget a series like Thorgal. However, that is far too ambitious. Artist Michel Rouge (Blueberry, Comanche, Gunfighter) no longer believes in it either. Readers from the very beginning in 1986 had to wait twelve years to be able to read the sequel. Patience is a virtue!

From part four onwards we get a new artist, François Allot. After that we never heard anything from this man again. Scriptwriter Rodolphe (Trent, Iruene, Europa) decides that a bit more nudity might help. We read that between heaven and earth the floodgates will close for good. That doesn't seem like such a bad idea to me. "Time is nothing more than a dream," is what this series claims. Time that we have now lost. Fantasy, a mayonnaise that doesn't always work.
