We felt it coming already in "All monsters" but this volume confirms this: Tardi not know what to tell, then suddenly, he invents anything to extend under less extraordinary adventures of Adèle Blanc -sec. God knows I've loved this series (until "Drowned two-headed"), but there is no longer possible. No script is disjointed, it turns round. And the worst part is that there will be a sequel ... What a mess!
