Zig et Puce

Alain Saint-Ogan’s classic French comic Zig et Puce continued its long-running adventures with a single 1966 issue from Stock, revisiting the beloved boy-and-penguin duo that had charmed readers since the 1920s. This volume stands as a later chapter in one of the pioneering series of European bande dessinée, showcasing Saint-Ogan’s signature clean ligne claire style and playful storytelling. Its enduring place in comics history comes from establishing many of the visual and narrative conventions that would define the Franco-Belgian tradition.
