Nelson #27

The mischievous, pointy-eared Nelson grins from atop a rocket-propelled barbecue grill blasting off into orbit above the Earth — and honestly, that image alone makes a pretty compelling case for this album. Titled Merguez Orbitale, this 2025 Dupuis release from Bertschy promises the kind of cheerfully absurd humor the series has always delivered with such infectious charm. If backyard cookouts and outer space can coexist in one ridiculous adventure, Nelson is absolutely the kid for the job.
