One gloomy night at the Museum of Natural History, a pterodactyl escapes from its display and wreaks havoc upon the city. Enter journalist extraordinaire Adèle Blanc-Sec, who must use her wits and firepower to get to the bottom of this bizarre mystery. An enchanting antihero, Adèle is fearless, brash, and thoroughly ill-tempered, smoking and cursing her way through the case -- always barely escaping peril to tell her tale. \u003cp\u003eMasterful French cartoonist Jacques Tardi created his iconic \u003cem\u003eThe Extraordinary Adventures of Adèle Blanc-Sec\u003c\/em\u003e series in 1976.
