Sloeber #9

The ninth volume of Sloeber arrives in 2022 with "De 12 Beeldjes," and Jeff Broeckx's cover sets an energetic tone right away — a man in a tan suit grapples with a young boy in a yellow shirt while a girl rushes in from the side and a brown dog watches the scuffle unfold on a sun-dappled suburban lawn. Broeckx's clean, expressive linework gives the scene a lively, adventure-serial feel that fans of the series will find immediately appealing. With Greet Liégeois scripting and Broeckx handling both pencils and inks throughout, this is a confident, charming entry in the Belgian all-ages tradition.
