Supergroin #3

The third volume of Carole Tremblay and Bach's delightful French-Canadian series finds our round, caped piglet hero — complete with superhero mask and green scarf — squaring off against les infâmes mitaines (the infamous mittens), a pair of rogue blue mitts flying dramatically across a burst of sunny yellow. It's a wonderfully absurd premise rendered in Bach's cheerful, rounded art style that makes this series such a joy for young readers. Supergroin contre les infâmes mitaines delivers exactly the kind of playful superhero silliness that made this 2018 release from Éditions de la Bagnole a treat from cover to cover.
