This is issue number 3404, as clearly indicated on the front cover. The illustrated scene features a bearded character, sitting on a cloud, wearing a red cap with a Ferrari logo, dark glasses, and a yellow T-shirt. The image plays on humor by showing this character in \"heaven\", holding a cigarette, with a cloud shaped like exhaust smoke, a nod to automobiles, and a halo floating above his head. The tagline \"To heaven, driver! And pedal to the metal!\" sets the satirical tone of this issue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe cover features an illustration signed \"STUF\" (visible at the bottom right), a recognized cartoonist known for his humorous drawings and distinctive graphic style, characteristic of the 2000s.
