Today is the 46th birthday of José Luis Munuera. Happy birthday!

Munuera is currently working on the second album in the Zorglub spin-off series, set to come out 21. September after last year’s well-received La Fille du Z (“Daughter of the Z“), and is posting samples on Facebook:

I feel like there’s something else about this day as well… what could it be?
