Spirou & Fantasio #13

Against a bold red background dominated by a giant white "Z," the cape-wearing villain Zorglub strides forward trailing a leash that keeps three shuffling, blank-eyed figures — Spirou, Fantasio, and a third companion — stumbling behind him, with Spirou's little dog Spip trotting along at their feet. The image instantly signals a story of mind-controlled heroes under the thumb of a wonderfully theatrical antagonist, all rendered in André Franquin's unmistakable ligne claire line, with cover inks also by Franquin himself. This 2017 Cinebook edition brings English-language readers Greg and Franquin's story to life in a package as eye-catching as any in the Spirou & Fantasio catalogue.
