Rate this book
Mélusine est une jeune apprentie sorcière. Morts-vivants, fantômes, monstres volants, potions magiques et châteaux hantés font partie de son univers quotidien. La petite sorcière aux cheveux roux enfourche son balai magique, prépare des potions avec des fientes de chauve-souris et du lait tourné, et se transforme en monstre effrayant...

Dans ce nouvel album, découpé en gags, toutes les aventures sont consacrées à la fête d'Halloween. Les petites filles (dès 8 ans) s'identifient facilement à cette sympathique héroïne, pleine d'humour et de malice. Des mêmes auteurs : Hocus Pocus, Le Bal des vampires, Philtres d'amour... --Emmanuelle Figueras

Qui dit sorcières et magie dit forcément Halloween.

Citrouilles, farces et déguisements sont au rendez-vous dans ce huitième tome, où l’on suit Mélusine dans une ambiance automnale parfaitement respectée. On la retrouve notamment à l’école de magie, cadre idéal pour ce thème.

La cousine fée fait aussi son retour, et elle a tout à fait sa place dans cette célébration.

J’aurais quand même apprécié des gags un peu plus marquants. Les chutes de balais de Cancrelune, on commence à les connaître… Mais dans l’ensemble, c’est un bon tome !

This was a series of cute little stories of a length that they might originally have been comic strips. They focus mostly on Melusine and her not-quite-so-successful friend Cancrelune, who are Halloween-type witches who focus on scaring people, making potions, making things with pumpkins, and such. We get to see them dealing with trick-or-treaters, Christian priests, school-settings, and random monsters, all with cute little punch-lines. It's shorter and funnier than a lot of the comics I normally read, and despite it being a version of witches that doesn't normally appeal to me, it is charming enough to win me over.

This is a comic about a witch that focuses on comedy and gags. Each story is one page, so it has a similar feel to the color comics you find in Sunday newspapers. The jokes are OK, but the art is really nice. This particular volume has a lot of stories about Halloween, so it makes for a good read in October.

These are a series of mostly one page gag comics that ran in the magazine Spirou, so don’t expect a story. None of the jokes come within earshot of a laugh; Mélusine is a strictly no-humor zone where comedy is as dead as the decedents of a graveyard.

The art is very good. A wasted opportunity more than anything.
