About this Collection

This fifth volume in the Sardine in Outer Space series collects a new set of all-ages space adventures featuring the plucky young pirate Sardine, her friend Little Louie, and their Uncle Yellow Mustache as they battle the evil Supermuscleman and his minions across the cosmos. The stories in this collection include the title tale 'My Cousin Manga' along with several other short, whimsical episodes originally serialized in French comic magazines. Written by Emmanuel Guibert and illustrated by Joann Sfar, this volume continues the series' signature blend of slapstick humor, imaginative sci-fi settings, and fast-paced storytelling.

In "The Bold and the Bashful," Captain Yellow Shoulder and the kids set off on a rocket liner to visit Grandma—only for their journey to take a wild turn when the ship is hijacked by the bickering duo Supermuscleman and Doc Krok. Written by Emmanuel Guibert and Edward Gauvin and illustrated by Guibert with colors by Walter Pezzali, this 2008 issue blends whimsy and tension in a story that’s as much about the oddball crew as it is about the unexpected detour. The cover, by Emmanuel Guibert, captures the moment with a mix of comic flair and quiet dread.
