16/22 #2

This 1983 Carlsen Comics release marks the second volume in the 16/22 series, presenting the distinctive work of Claire Bretécher, who both penciled and inked the cover entirely on her own. Bretécher's sharp, expressive line work made her one of the most recognizable voices in European comics, and this German-language edition brought her sensibility to a new readership at a cover price of 8.80 DEM. A fine slice of early-'80s Franco-Belgian comics culture in a compact, accessible format.
