Lewis Trondheim |
Review by

Review:
Frenchman Lewis Trondheim is the author of about fifty bazillion comic books, the majority of which are being (slowly) translated into English. His series Dungeon, co-written with Joann Sfar, is an absolute must-read for anyone who’s ever, say, played some serious Dungeons and Dragons. (You know who you are.) Picture a free-wheeling fantasy story with a swashbuckling duck hero, blended with the petty inner-office squabbling of a Dilbert strip.
Well… try to picture it, anyway.
Note #1: For cheap laugh, check out Trondheim’s webpage using Google’s translator function. It’s like playing MadLibs, but with some weird French thrown in!
Availability:
Any decent comic book store or online.
Bitter Aftertaste:
They're really taking their sweet time with those translations.
