Forbidden Zone #3

The third volume of Fluide Glacial's Forbidden Zone series arrives with a cover that perfectly captures its offbeat humor: a wide-eyed scientist in a lab coat stares out at us through oversized blue-tinted glasses, his afro literally opened up to reveal a small orange robot rummaging around inside his skull with a hammer. Mol·com's cartooning is lively and irreverent, making "Intelligence Artificielle" feel like exactly the kind of absurdist science comedy you'd hope it to be. A fun 2007 entry in this quirky French anthology series.
