Pauvre Lampil #3

The third volume of this beloved Belgian comedy series finds the hapless Lampil in a domestic predicament — shown here in a cheerful kitchen scene where his wife, apron-clad and frying pan in hand, eyes him with a bemused question mark hanging in the air. Willy Lambil's expressive linework and Raoul Cauvin's knack for everyday humor shine through even on this warm, lighthearted cover. Published by Dupuis in 1980, it's a charming entry in a series that finds endless comic potential in the small disasters of ordinary life.
