Herman Hedning & Co [julalbum] #15

This 2006 Swedish holiday album brings Jonas Darnell's gloriously irreverent Herman Hedning universe together in a festive julalbum package, with Darnell handling every aspect of the work — writing, art, and color — all on his own. The title story, "Femton ton ister i rampljuset," promises the kind of gleefully absurdist humor that fans of the series have come to love. A fine seasonal collection for anyone who appreciates Scandinavian comics with a sharp, anarchic edge.
