Super Groom #2

The cover of this 2021 Dupuis album sets an energetic tone: a caped, red-uniformed hero — Super Groom himself — strikes a ready fighting stance in the foreground, while a menacing lineup of villains looms large behind him against a tropical island backdrop. Writer Yoann and cover artist Fabien Vehlmann pack the image with personality, from the hero's determined masked expression to the eclectic rogues' gallery that includes a gorilla in military gear, a grey alien, and a hulking robot. "La guerre olympique" promises a wild, action-packed clash worthy of its Olympic-war title.
