Impostures #2

Five wonderfully odd suspects line up against a police height chart on this Fluide Glacial cover — a scruffy bald man, a lanky fellow in a green sweater, a wild-haired near-naked figure, a pompous naval officer with a small dog, and a stout man in a striped tank top, each looking more shifty and absurd than the last. Romain Dutreix's loose, expressive linework turns a simple police lineup into a parade of human comedy, perfectly setting the tone for this second volume of Impostures. Published in 2015 by Audie, it's exactly the kind of French comics wit that makes Fluide Glacial such a reliably entertaining imprint.
