Les aventures de Jérôme Moucherot #4

From the studio of Boucq comes this delightfully unhinged fourth volume in the Les Aventures de Jérôme Moucherot series, published by Le Lombard in 2012. The cover — a dizzying overhead view — finds our bespectacled, leopard-print-clad hero flat on his back, business card in hand, being thoroughly enveloped by the scarlet tentacles of a giant octopus on what appears to be a grand staircase. It's the perfect visual promise for a series that never lets ordinary life stay ordinary for long.
