by M. Tillieux

Overview

In this adventure graphic novel, there’s a prison break, and much more.

“Ten Thousand Years in Hell” is a rollicking, comedic South American prison escape yarn, starring the classic Franco-Belgian action-adventure P.I. The second story, “Boom and Bust,” finds a countryside jaunt turned into an ad-hoc investigation by a spectacular vehicular washout and a suspiciously noisy enclosure.

Editorial Reviews

"You’ve likely never heard of him, but Gil Jordan—M. Tillieux’s signature creation—may be the comic world’s greatest detective (sorry Batman)."

The Guardian

"Ten Thousand Years in Hell is the type of fiction that can be enjoyed by all ages. Mystery lovers will certainly relate to the adventures of Jourdan and Crackerjack, while kids can easily take to this novel’s humor and carefree attitude."
