Hercule Potiron #1
A delightful French parody from Delcourt, this 2009 album introduces Hercule Potiron — a stout, mustachioed detective enthroned regally in an armchair while chaos swirls around him: a skull-jawed monster lurks at his feet, a dandyish figure reads The Times, and an impeccably formal butler stands at the ready with a tea service. The creative team of Veys and Caracuzzo brings a wonderfully irreverent energy to this Agatha Christie-inspired send-up, blending mystery-genre trappings with broad, affectionate comedy. If you enjoy your whodunits with a generous dash of absurdist wit, La Meilleure Façon de Mourir promises a thoroughly entertaining read.
