Gaston #11

Volume 11 of Franquin's beloved Gaston series, subtitled Lagaffe nous gâte, opens with an irresistibly chaotic beach scene: Gaston leaps triumphantly with a triumphant "M'ENFIN!!" while the shoreline around him is littered with hapless sunbathers, a small dog, scattered belongings, and what appears to be a small explosion — all classic collateral damage from his cheerful incompetence. Published by Dupuis in 2017, this vibrant collection captures everything that makes Gaston Lagaffe such an enduring comedic creation: boundless good intentions paired with spectacular, unstoppable disorder. A delight for longtime fans and a perfectly chaotic entry point for newcomers alike.
