Dikke Hägar #23

The twenty-third volume in Arboris's Dutch-language "Dikke Hägar" series brings more warmhearted Viking comedy from the pen of Dik Browne. The cover sets the tone perfectly: a grinning, red-bearded Hägar stands cheerfully amid a battlefield strewn with defeated knights and scattered armor, clutching a dented cannonball-like boulder while calling out "En jullie ook een prettige dag!" — wishing everyone a nice day in the most disarmingly jovial way possible. It's a quintessential snapshot of the strip's gentle absurdist charm, making this 1999 collection a delightful addition for fans of the lovable pillaging optimist.
