Sammy integraal #5

Collecting the 1982–1985 run of Berck and Cauvin's beloved Belgian crime-comedy series, this fifth hardcover integral presents Sammy at his most relaxed — cigar in hand, sprawled across a plush red armchair alongside a pint-sized companion, while a lanky, hat-scratching figure looms behind them. The clean, expressive ligne claire artwork captures the series' signature mix of warmth and wisecracking humor perfectly. A handsome addition to any Franco-Belgian comics shelf, this 2023 Saga Uitgaven volume makes a satisfying chunk of the Sammy saga easy to revisit in one sitting.
