Description

Hardcover comic book, as shown in the photo, titled Rantanplan Otage. The cover features a dominant green color, enhanced by a yellow strip at the top, with the title clearly legible in red and black letters: "RANTANPLAN OTAGE". The "Rantanplan" series is mentioned at the top of the cover, confirming that it is an album derived from the Lucky Luke universe. The central illustration depicts the dog Rantanplan, tied to a stake, holding a caricature character on the ground, while a second character, dressed in a black uniform with gold buttons, holds a bag of money and banknotes, with a weapon pointed at the scene. The authors "X. Fauche" and "J. Léturgie" are credited at the bottom left, and the signature "Morris" appears on the right, recalling its connection to the Lucky Luke universe. The "Lucky Productions" logo is visible at the bottom of the cover.

The hardcover binding, visible on the spine, is green. No major defects appear on the visible side: the lamination shines slightly, with no obvious signs of wear, deep scratches, or chips on the photographed surface. The print colors remain vibrant and the graphics faithful to Morris's humorous and expressive style, clearly recognizable in the characters' lines. The background of the cover is plain, without secondary patterns. No stickers or handwritten annotations are visible on the front. The format seems standard for a Franco-Belgian comic strip, but no dimensions are mentioned in the keywords.

The presence of the year "1992" in the keywords indicates the publication period, consistent with the graphics and presentation of the album. The printing style, the typography of the title, and the publisher's logo correspond to Lucky Productions editions from the early 1990s.

The visible side shows neither crumpled corners nor apparent stains. The details of the drawing, such as Rantanplan's star-studded collar and the dynamic gestures of the characters, are well rendered. The title and authors are perfectly legible.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. The visible cover is in good overall condition, with no major apparent defects in the photo.
