Ingmar #3

From Bourhis and Spiessert comes this delightful third volume of Ingmar le preux, subtitled L'élixir de vieillesse — and the cover sets the tone perfectly: a red-clad Ingmar leaps frantically away from a determined little axe-wielding warrior at the edge of a dramatic cliff, with an icy landscape looming below. Published by Dupuis in 2008, this Franco-Belgian series blends Viking adventure with broad, expressive comedy in a cartoony style that's utterly charming. If you enjoy your Norse heroes thoroughly undignified and perpetually on the back foot, this one's a real treat.
