Les Runners #1

The cover of this Bamboo Édition opener sets the tone perfectly: a giant pair of athletic legs strides across a bright blue cityscape while a delightfully mismatched group of runners — including a stout fellow, a pink-haired woman, and several other enthusiastic amateurs — scrambles along below. Sti and Buche bring a light, cartoonish energy to Premières Foulées ("First Strides"), promising a humorous look at the world of everyday running. If you've ever laced up your shoes with more ambition than fitness, this 2019 series launch looks like it might know exactly how you feel.
