Robbedoes en Kwabbernoot door #2

A moody blue twilight sets the atmosphere on this 2007 Dupuis release, as the young, red-jacketed Robbedoes and the white-haired Kwabbernoot make their way through a shadowy cobblestone street by lantern light — while a stark black silhouette of a top-hatted figure looms ominously in the foreground. Frank Le Gall brings his own distinctive vision to these beloved characters, and the cover alone promises a mystery steeped in atmosphere and unease. A fine addition to the "door" series that invites fresh storytelling voices into the world of these enduring Dutch-language comics.
