Charles Charles, profession Président #[nn]

A slim, suit-clad president sits alone behind an imposing desk, deeply absorbed in a game of solitaire while national and European flags flank his grand chair — the perfect visual joke about the life of a head of state. Marc Dubuisson and James have crafted a dry, affectionate political satire that promises plenty of deadpan comedy from the highest office in the land. If you enjoy humor that pokes gently at the gap between presidential grandeur and very human idleness, this 2013 Delcourt release looks like a fine addition to your shelf.
