Gaston #4

Volume 4 of Dupuis' beloved Gaston series, subtitled Le Bureau des Gaffes en Gros, showcases everyone's favorite lovable slacker in fine form — sprawled in a folding chair, blissfully painting at an easel while a contraption of wires and a spinning fan wheel suggests his latest well-intentioned disaster is already in motion. André Franquin and Jidéhem's cover art captures Gaston's irresistible blend of creativity and chaos with warmth and razor-sharp comic timing. A delightful 2017 edition for anyone who appreciates Franco-Belgian comics at their most charming.
