De avonturen van Urbanus #19

The bright-red cover of this nineteenth volume in the beloved Belgian series sets the tone perfectly: Willy Linthout's artwork sends a panicked priest and a striped convict scrambling across the foreground while a wild-eyed figure in a plaid coat dive-bombs from above, all watched over by a cheerfully unfazed chef. Linthout's expressive, rubbery character work is on full display here, capturing the gleeful chaos that has made *De avonturen van Urbanus* a staple of Dutch-language comics. "Dieselman" promises another hilariously unhinged adventure from the team of Urbanus and Linthout, published by Standaard Uitgeverij in 2010.
