Stripturf #[nn]

This 1987 Dutch album from Oberon collects Uco Egmond's humorous football (soccer) strip Stripturf, with Egmond handling every creative role — writing, drawing, inking, and lettering entirely on his own. The story "Een vat voor de hertog" promises the kind of sharp, warmly comic look at the beautiful game that made this series a treat for Dutch sports-comics fans. A fine example of one creator's complete, personal vision of the pitch and its colorful characters.
