Mieux vaut tard... #2

The second volume of Lebrun and Laudrain's humorous biker series rolls back into action with the subtitled adventure L'empire d'essence. The cover sets the comedic tone immediately, featuring two wildly mismatched motorcyclists — a big, shaggy, wild-eyed rider astride an imposing chopper looming over a much smaller, rotund biker on a tiny scooter-like machine. It's a warm and funny visual gag that promises the kind of good-natured, road-trip comedy fans of the series have come to enjoy since the first volume.
