Kid Paddle #17

Volume 17 of Midam's beloved Kid Paddle series arrives with a cover that practically begs the question right in the title: "Moet ik er een tekening bij maken?" — "Do I need to draw a picture?" The answer is an emphatic yes, and what a picture it is: Kid himself perches atop a beleaguered black-and-white cow, while a wide-eyed companion kneels beside it clutching a camera, and the poor animal stares out with the series' signature goggle-eyed bewilderment. Published by Dupuis in 2021, this Dutch-language edition delivers the chaotic, cartoon energy fans have come to love from this long-running Franco-Belgian gem.
