Je veux une Harley #5

The fifth volume of this cheerful French bande dessinée series — subtitled Les Quinquas requinqués — arrives from Dargaud with a cover bursting with infectious energy: three middle-aged bikers pile onto a big Harley-Davidson, arms flung wide and grins even wider, radiating the freewheeling joy of rediscovered youth. Margerin and Cuadrado's clean, expressive linework gives the trio an instantly likable warmth against that inviting burnt-orange background. If you've ever dreamed of hitting the open road on two wheels, this 2017 album makes that fantasy look like an awful lot of fun.
