La pension Moreau #2

A young boy stands vulnerably atop the enormous, looming head of a red beast with glowing eyes — a striking image that immediately sets the tone of this 2018 French album from Éditions de la Gouttière. Subtitled La peur au ventre ("Fear in the Belly"), this second volume of La Pension Moreau promises a story steeped in childhood dread and something monstrous lurking beneath the surface. With its rich crimson palette and unsettling composition, this album looks like a genuinely compelling read for fans of atmospheric, youth-focused European bande dessinée.
