Franquin's Last Laugh

Résumé du livre

Franquin's Last Laugh is the complete collection of Andre Franquin's underground comic series 'Idees Noires', with a new translation and introduction by editor Kim Thompson. Andre Franquin is considered one of the founding fathers of the Franco-Belgian comic tradition. With his late-career 'Idees Noires', a series of gags from the late 1970s and early 1980s, was created mostly for the underground comics magazine Fluide Glacial. The result is a series of joyfully morbid 'blackout' pages that postulated the world as a bleak, miserable and hopeless hell.
