Donjon Zénith #7
Buiten de wallen
In het absurde en dus altijd vermakelijke universum van de verschillende Donjon-reeksen - Ochtendgloren, Avondschemer, Parade en Monsters - is Zenit de reeks die verhaalt van het hoogtepunt van het Donjon-tijdperk.
De Donjon is in handen gevallen van Willem van Dattum. Om hem terug te veroveren moeten Marvin, Isis en Herbert funus putris vinden om de huidige bewoners te verjagen. Maar is dit echt het plan van de Wachter? Onze helden zullen tegen iedereen moeten vechten om de Donjon te redden. En bovendien, zal het Marvin lukken met z'n verlovings-Tong-Deum?

About the author
Joann Sfar
485 books508 followersJoann Sfar (born August 28, 1971 in Nice) is a French comics artist, comic book creator, and film director.
Sfar is considered one of the most important artists of the new wave of Franco-Belgian comics. Many of his comics were published by L'Association which was founded in 1990 by Jean-Christophe Menu and six other artists. He also worked together with many of the new movement's main artists, e.g. David B. and Lewis Trondheim. The Donjon series which he created with Trondheim has a cult following in many countries.
Some of his comics are inspired by his Jewish heritage as the son of Jewish parents (an Ashkenazi mother and a Sephardic father). He himself says that there is Ashkenazi humor in his Professeur Bell series (loosely based on Joseph Bell), whereas Le chat du rabbin is clearly inspired by his Sephardic side. Les olives noires is a series about a Jewish child in Israel at the time of Jesus. Like Le chat du rabbin, the series contains a lot of historical and theological information.
His main influences are Fred and André Franquin as well as Marc Chagall, Chaim Soutine, Will Eisner, Hugo Pratt and John Buscema.
From 2009 to 2010, Sfar wrote and directed 'Serge Gainsbourgh: Une Vie Heroique', a biopic of the notorious French songwriter, of whom Sfar is a self-confessed fanatic. The film, which draws substantially on Sfar's abilities as a comic book artist through its extensive use of fantasy artwork, animation and puppetry, was released in 2010 to general critical acclaim.

Qu'est-ce que le dessin de Boulet est beau ! Un tome bien plus intéressant et rythmé que le précédent Zénith : c'est drôle, épique et bon, rien à dire !

It is all about the right timing and how you can screw things up. Making a laugh; dating and social interacting.
