Gladiatorus #2

Two towering, heavily-armed gladiators loom menacingly over a scrawny, wide-eyed little figure caught between them in the arena — and the comedic tension is immediate. Cazenove and Amouriq bring their playful Roman world to life in this second volume, Alea Jacta Ouiste, with expressive cartooning that squeezes every drop of humor from the absurd size difference on display. Published by Bamboo Édition in 2014, it's a fun-spirited romp through the ancient arena that fans of Franco-Belgian comedy comics will find hard to resist.
