Kiekeboe #91

High atop a dramatic coastal cliff, a blonde figure levels a gun at a sweating, wide-eyed man in a yellow shirt who teeters dangerously close to the edge — while a stocky companion looks on from behind. This is "De Affaire Chichi," the 91st album in Merko's beloved Belgian comedy-adventure series De Kiekeboes, and the tension-meets-slapstick cover sets up a story brimming with the series' trademark mix of peril and humor. Published by Standaard Uitgeverij in 2001, it's a fine addition to one of Flanders' most enduring comic families.
