Hamster Jovial et ses louveteaux

In 1974, French humorist Gotlib launched Hamster Jovial et ses louveteaux as a one-issue comic for Editions du Fromage, a spin-off from his acclaimed Rubrique-à-Brac series. This single volume collects absurdist, meta-fictional gags centered on the titular hamster and his wolf-cub scouts, showcasing Gotlib’s signature wordplay and irreverent linework. Though brief, it remains a cult artifact of French bande dessinée, exemplifying the creator’s chaotic, self-referential humor at its peak.
