Adieu Tonton #[nn]

Published by Albin Michel's L'Écho des Savanes imprint in 1992, this French album from Cabu presents a wryly tender image right on the cover: an elderly, rather gaunt man lying propped against a pillow, rendered in Cabu's characteristically expressive ligne claire with just enough caricature to make you smile and wince at once. *Adieu Tonton — Regrets Éternels* announces its tone in the title itself, blending farewell and mock-solemnity into something that feels equal parts affectionate and sharply comic.
