Abstract

en_US
This is a second high-class volume of comics representing twelve fables of La Fontaine, like the first by Delcourt in 2002. The artist for each fable can again be found in the T of C at the back and also on the back cover; in fact there are again twelve different artists, and their styles of presentation are quite different. The endpapers have changed. We now have an ant and a dragonfly moving in on a writer's picnic, with book, ink, and feather. Meanwhile a crow takes a cheese towards a fairytale house. One of the prizes for this book must go to the final picture of OF on 9, with a Red Cross cart and a puddle of blood where there used to be a frog. UP plays well with the deceitful talk between fox and rooster, as when the author gives the fox a thought-bubble of a meal while the fox himself talks peace or when the rooster uses binoculars to see dogs who are in fact grazing cows (11-12). AD is graced with a particular mordant pane on the ant's bite of the archer (21). La Mort et le Bûcheron (22) has the most unusual art in this volume, appropriately heavily blue and black. TH is done with unicycle and hot-dog motorcycle (26). One of the best stories here for filling the gaps with great pictures is OR (30). Do not miss the animals waiting at the bus stop in spring in Le Cheval et le Loup (41).
