The Scumbag #3

The Scumbag Tome 3 — "Goldenbrownéye" — brings Rick Remender and Roland Boschi's gloriously irreverent series to Urban Comics' French readers in fine style. The cover delivers an immediate punch: a muscle car gleaming gold anchors the scene, flanked by a motley crew of hard-edged characters — a shirtless brawler, a sharp-dressed gunslinger, a red-haired woman in a bikini, and a tactical operative — all posed against a sweeping alien landscape bathed in a warm planetary glow. At 16 EUR, this 2023 édition is a vivid showcase for Boschi's energetic linework and a great entry point into one of indie comics' most unabashedly fun action series.
