Merveille, David

Hello, Mr. Hulot

(1) K-3 Merveille cleverly captures the essential French film character Monsieur Hulot in every episode of this collection of short, largely wordless, comic-strip vignettes. Hulot longs to be a hero--an astronaut, a dashing lover, a gun-toting outlaw--but somehow his feats of derring-do end up being more mundane. Merveille pays homage to the films, but these are newly minted mini-dramas.
