La Main heureuse #[nn]

Frantz Duchazeau's La Main Heureuse arrives from Casterman with a cover that immediately sets its tone: a boldly posed showgirl in a red costume dominates the vivid yellow background, while a solitary small figure stands below her, dwarfed beneath a sign advertising an "Entrée Spectacle Live." The contrast between the glamorous performer and the lone, modest figure below hints at a world where spectacle and everyday life collide in unexpected ways. A striking 2015 release from Professeur Cyclope, this one announces itself with real visual confidence.
