La vie d'Artiche #[nn]

From Glénat's 1979 adult comedy line comes this breezy French album by writer Godard and artist Pierre Le Guen. The cover sets a playful, irreverent tone with a group of scantily clad young women darting through a sunlit park while a flustered, formally dressed gentleman gives chase among the trees. Le Guen's clean ligne-claire linework and warm colors make the whole scene feel more like a Gallic farce than anything scandalous — a fitting introduction to what promises to be a lighthearted romp.
