Gousse & Gigot #1

Two very different women share the cover of Anne Simon's Gousse & Gigot — one long-haired and serene against a cool teal background, the other dark-bobbed and bespectacled with a decidedly skeptical expression. Simon's clean, expressive linework gives each character a distinct personality at a glance, making this 2006 Misma Éditions release an immediately appealing invitation into what looks like a wonderfully odd-couple dynamic.
