PLESSIX MICHEL PLESSIX THE WIND IN THE SANDS Du souk dans la casbah (T.5), Delcourt 2013 Original cover. Signed. Watercolor, India ink and pastel highlights on paper 32.3 × 50 cm (12.72 × 19.69 in.) The story of Toad, Mole and Rat is quite astonishing... Stuck in a cruel predicament for far too long, they set off in search of a mysterious treasure that would allow them to return home. Disappointed by this useless detour, they begin their return journey with empty purses and heavy hearts. They still had a long way to go to complete their journey, but without a fifrelin, so to speak, how would they ever see their beloved Bois sauvage again? However, thanks to the impromptu arrival of their friend Badger, the hope of returning home at last slowly appears on the horizon. But it seems to be a tale of wits. Their destiny now depends on a sausage, which in these parts is not a good thing, especially with some religious nuts! Rififi pour un simple sauciflard... C'est l'enfance de l'art. The original cover of Du souk dans la casbah, the fifth and final instalment of Vent dans les Sables, focuses on the Homeric final battle between our four companions and their good buddies (and girlfriend!), pitted against a band of hooligans made up of false prophets and real scoundrels, and unsavory acquaintances from the Bois sauvage. The result? A formidable human pyramid, painted by an artist who is clearly enjoying himself!
