Suske en Wiske #381

A cleverly designed cover for this 2025 entry in the long-running Belgian series pulls Suske and Wiske — seen emerging wide-eyed from the center of a rolled tapestry — into what appears to be a medieval world teeming with knights, a crowned king, sword-wielding warriors, a white rabbit, and even a donkey, all swirling around the unfurling fabric. The tapestry's embroidered panels, bearing Latin-style inscriptions including "DEARENA" and "HAROLD V," strongly evoke the famous Bayeux Tapestry, giving "Het geweven geheim" a wonderfully historical flavor. Wout Schoonis brings real energy and warmth to the composition, making this 381st album a treat for longtime fans and curious newcomers alike.
