Comment

Parfait exemple de la veine nonsensique de Petillon, cet album met en scène Jack Palmer face à son adversaire récurrent des débuts: le docteur Supermarketstein.
Tout ici est prétexte à dérision et la trame principale n'a que peu d'importance. Ici, la référence est reine et les cases fourmillent de gags autonomes.
A noter, la dernière case de la deuxième planche, qui justifie le titre de l'album.
