Anuki #9

The ninth volume of Sénégas and Maupomé's beloved prehistoric comedy finds the young cave-kids in their usual delightful chaos — three wild-haired children tumbling over each other against a gnarled bare tree, while a startled skunk makes its presence unmistakably known nearby. Looming in the misty distance, a hulking group of figures suggests that bigger troubles may be on the horizon, setting the stage perfectly for the water-and-fire tensions promised by the subtitle *L'Eau et le Feu*. Published by Éditions de la Gouttière in 2019, this installment brings the same wonderfully expressive, loose-lined art that makes Anuki such a charming series for readers of all ages.
