A complete adventure presented in one 48-page issue. Our plucky heroine, Adele Blanc-Sec, is in the deep-freeze: encased in ice by the now-defunct Felicien Mouginot since 1912. She's so relaxed that she's slept right through World War I! Lucien Brindavoine holds the key to her revival, but he's busy getting drunk! In the meantime, the villainous Dieuleveult has sworn to kill Adele--but must first discover the secret of immortality embodied by Adele in her deep sleep.
