Johan et Pirlouit #5

From the storied Belgian studio of Peyo comes the fifth album in the beloved Johan et Pirlouit series — Le Serment des Vikings. The cover throws us straight into the action aboard a Viking longship, where Johan and the pint-sized Pirlouit are caught up in a wild shipboard brawl, with a hulking, dark-bearded Viking and several sprawling combatants tumbling across the deck — dragon-prowed ships visible on the open sea behind them. Published by Dupuis in 1957, this is medieval adventure with Peyo's characteristic warmth and comic timing at full sail.
