The Great Barribal
© Toonder studio's
Dominique Thura is the animator of the association P.B.D.I. in Toulouse, which published old comics. After several letters, he agrred with Marten Toonder to publish this story of Tom Poes and Mr Bommel, in french "Tom Pouce et M. Bommel" (in dutch "Tom Poes en Heer Bommel"). He mays be proud because the book "Le Grand Barribal" has some style, with the great format, the blue ink, the strong paper.
Today, it is the only one album of Marten Toonder in french language !
The story is the 113th of the 177 épisodes, as it was published in "La Nouvelle République du Centre-Ouest" (daily newspaper of Tours and around) in 1965/1966, with the tranlation of Madeleine Beaumord, who succeeded in sharing the universality of the great fabulist preoccupations. Are Tom Poes and Mr Bommel to be impressed by this Great Barribal, who claims in the television that he may remove the didfficulties of each one ?
Do not miss the last copies of the 300 published in 1992 (each one is numeroted), here sell art the good price of 100 FF, included port. (address : Pressibus - 141 rue de la Fuye - 37000 Tours - France).
A comics which goes accross the ages !
