Les Commerciaux #5

The fifth volume of Les Commerciaux — "Vente en Ligne" — brings a delightfully absurd scene to its cover: a suited salesman hawks wares poolside with a "Soldes" sign, an older fellow fishes with a net full of product boxes, and a goggled diver surfaces from the water clutching merchandise, while a woman in the background hauls still more packages. It's a cheerful, chaotic snapshot of salespeople finding creative new ways to move product in the 2007 digital age — fishing for customers, quite literally. Fans of Franco-Belgian comedy will find Bloz, Pumeri, and Rotelle's breezy, good-natured humor right at home with this Bamboo Édition release.
