«Lagaffe mérite des baffes» is the humor comic by André Franquin, published by Editions Dupuis in hardcover (48 pages, in French).
The album collects gags starring Gaston Lagaffe, a dreamy office worker whose inventions and absent-mindedness cause chain-reaction disasters. The humor combines visual situations, wordplay and the character's ineffable clumsiness, in doses that the title sums up with irony. A sample of the best humor from the Franco-Belgian school.
It is part of the Gaston Lagaffe series (also called Gaston Classique), of which it is volume 13. Originally published in 1979.
A classic of Franco-Belgian humor that can be enjoyed by both young readers and nostalgic adults.
André Franquin was an influential Belgian comics artist, whose best-known creations are Gaston and Marsupilami. He also produced the Spirou et Fantasio comic strip from 1946 to 1968, a period seen by many as the series' golden age.
