Magasin général #7

The seventh volume of Loisel and Tripp's beloved Magasin Général series arrives with a cover full of rustic charm and lively energy — a young blonde girl in a pink dress dances joyfully alongside a lanky, grinning older man in a small-town street, surrounded by a wonderfully chaotic menagerie of geese, a large dark bear, a black cat, a spotted puppy, and a rooster, while elegantly dressed onlookers watch from the boardwalk behind them. Titled "Charleston," this 2011 Casterman release captures the warmth and folk-tale spirit that has made this series so endearing, with cover pencils by Régis Loisel and inks by Jean-Louis Tripp bringing every feather and footstep to vivid life.
