Jump #8

A massive great white shark looms open-jawed over the entire cover of this Belgian comics anthology, with a classic Volkswagen van — packed with a lively crew of cartoon characters and topped with an enormous hamburger — caught right between its teeth. The cheeky "Haai Five!" title (a Dutch pun on High Five and haai, meaning shark) tells you exactly the kind of playful humor Charel and Cambré bring to this eighth volume. If you enjoy your comics with a side of absurdist fun and a knowing wink at pop-culture imagery, this 2015 entry in the Jump series delivers the goods.
