Le Journal de Tintin #14/1974

"Le cas paraffine" is a chilling mystery from the 1974 issue of Le Journal de Tintin, featuring a standout story by Will Eisner with art by Jerry Grandenetti and inks by both Eisner and Grandenetti. When Mrs. Paraffin confesses to killing her husband, Detective Dolan is left unsettled—her confession is too clean, too precise, especially after learning she used a chemical that dissolved him entirely. The cover, by Turk, captures the eerie tone of the tale with a stark, shadowed image that hints at secrets buried beneath the surface.
