This is another one of those comics that are, as of this posting, still not otherwise available in English. Thank Heavens for the internet! And thank God for scanlaters, without whose generous contributions of their time and effort we would never see any of the really great European and Asian comics. THANKS EVERYBODY!
This particular book is a throwback to the old EC comics just as much as it's a throwback to the old Warren line of magazines, complete with a weird narrator and all. And when I say weird, I mean it ( it's hinted in the third story that the narrator was actually the killer himself).
This volume has four different 'urban legends', all of which I've heard before but that didn't make it any less enjoyable. It's really about the art and the pacing in this volume that hooks you. You know the ending is coming, but you're still willing to go along for the ride.
If you read French, you can order this from DARGAUD's website (costs about ten euros); if not, me and you both will just have to wait for the English version to come around.
