Scanlation Sunday: Exquisite Corpse 27-28

Since we missed a couple of weeks of Scanlation Sunday last month, here’s a double dose of Spirou’s Exquisite Corpse to make up for it!

'Un Cadavre Exquis' p. 27 (ill. Parme; (c) Dupuis and the artist; SR scanlation)'Un Cadavre Exquis' p. 28 (ill. Yann & Simon Léturgie; (c) Dupuis and the artist; SR scanlation)

These two episodes were made by Fabrice Parme (whose attention to detail is appreciated), and Yann & Simon Léturgie, respectively.

I grew up reading Spirou in Scandinavian translations. Now I'm learning French and trying to decode the originals.

  1. I believe Yann and Leturgie used that girls-vs-boys theme in the series “Spirou Dream Team”, as well.

    On another note, I kinda fear for the rest of the storyline now. Perfect-fitting masks is such a Deus Ex Machina that the story could soon go downhill. The worst part about the Mission Impossible movies…

    1. If you’re looking for logical plot development and plausible twists, I can tell you right away that you will be disappointed.

      What we’re starting to see here is kind of a struggle between different writers overs whether Seccotine, or Zorglub, will be a villain in this story. The idea goes back to [url=https://spiroureporter.net/2013/10/23/scanlation-stopgap-exquisite-corpse-2-3/]strip 3[/url] by Tarrin, but was immediately reversed by Bercovici. Now Yann & Léturgie are bringing it back, and (SPOILER) we’ll see it go back and forth again according to each author’s preference.

  2. You’re right, maybe it’s been a while since the story was uphill.

    Lecturing a homicidal gorilla about language, well, you need priorities.
