A looming dark silhouette of a giant strides across a warm amber landscape of rolling hills, scattered trees, and tiny distant buildings — a wonderfully deadpan image that perfectly sets up the French title's comic premise: Le géant s'est fait voler son slip ("The giant had his underpants stolen"). Alex Chauvel's cover work has a pleasingly flat, almost folk-art quality, with bold graphic shapes and a muted earthy palette that feel both playful and quietly eerie. Published by The Hoochie Coochie in 2017, this volume has the confident charm of an absurdist fable told with real visual wit.
