Gargouilles #5

The fifth volume of Gargouilles — "Le Double maléfique" — bursts onto the page with the series' signature blend of mischief and monster charm. The cover, by D-P Filippi and S. Camboni, sends a wild pink gargoyle creature careening through city streets, carrying two young red-haired riders on its back while a goggle-wearing kid on a scooter races below in clear pursuit. It's a wonderfully kinetic image that captures exactly why this Les Humanoïdes Associés series has such an irresistible energy — part urban adventure, part creature comedy, all fun.
