9 vies pour un six-coups #1

Charles le Chat Noir is back in this second "Tu Parles, Charles!" collection from Editions Triskel, and the cover sets a perfectly playful tone — the wide-eyed black cat peeking out from inside a carved jack-o'-lantern pumpkin, his expressive paws gripping the orange shell, all set against a cheerful lilac background. Abel Chen's cartooning brings an irresistible charm to the gag-strip format, and this 2000 volume promises more of the wit and visual comedy that makes Charles such an endearing feline protagonist. A delightful pick for fans of Franco-Belgian humor comics.
