Dofus #21

Volume 21 of the beloved Franco-Belgian all-ages series plunges readers into an underwater adventure, as the cover — by Ancestral Z, Mojojojo, and Tot — depicts a young duck-like hero and a hulking goggled companion surrounded by a swirling blue world teeming with fish, tiny creatures, and submerged mysteries. The subtitle Peur sur le village ("Fear Over the Village") promises trouble brewing beneath the surface, and the playful, expressive art from Ankama's creative team captures that mix of peril and whimsy the series does so well. A cheerful and energetic 2014 entry perfect for fans of cartoon adventure comics.
