Comment

Les couleurs directes de Frank Humpris sont toujours très vives pour cette histoire assez improbable de cet indien digne d'hollywood à la coiffure toujours impeccable.

Je trouve que la case en haut à gauche avec le saut du cheval est particulièrement réussie. Visiblement Humpris a du penser la même chose car il va redessiner cette case plusieurs fois sur de nouvelles planches de la série (voir photos 2 et 3)
