Petit Poilu #23

Pierre Bailly and Céline Fraipont bring their irresistible little fuzzy hero back for Duel de bulles, and the cover sets the scene with gleeful charm — tiny Petit Poilu stands center stage, red nose aglow, waving excitedly as a wand sends a giant shimmering bubble floating into the air, while a large, dramatically flustered snail character reacts with wide-eyed alarm nearby. Teal bubbles of every size drift across the background, giving the whole image a playful, almost theatrical energy that the series does so well. Whether you're already a fan of this beloved Dupuis series or discovering it for the first time in 2019, this volume looks like an absolutely delightful ride.
