Robbedoes en Kwabbernoot #57

Album 57 in the long-running Dutch-language series finds Robbedoes and Kwabbernoot in unmistakably futuristic territory — the cover by Olivier Schwartz places the duo front and center, with Robbedoes towering in a bold red robotic suit while Kwabbernoot stands enclosed within a transparent pod-like compartment at its chest, their faithful dog Pfff at his feet. Brussels' own Atomium looms in the background, grounding the sci-fi energy in something recognizably real, while a white-suited figure dashes off to the left wielding a fire extinguisher, hinting at the lively chaos to come. Written by Benjamin Abitan and Sophie Guerrive, "Het geheugen van de toekomst" ("The Memory of the Future") looks like a thoroughly entertaining 2024 addition to this beloved Dupuis franchise.
