Twelve albums of the scheming Grand Vizier arrive together here, with René Goscinny writing and Jean Tabary drawing.
The running joke is simple and endlessly reworked: Iznogoud wants the Caliph's throne, and every plan he hatches turns back on him. Across the twelve volumes the gags shift shape rather than repeat, built on wordplay, mistaken identity and satire aimed at power and flattery. Tabary's loose, elastic artwork carries the timing, so pages read quickly while still rewarding a second look. The humour lands for children old enough to follow a joke and for adults who know Goscinny from his other work.
Highlights of this edition:
• Twelve Iznogoud albums collected in one box
• Script by René Goscinny with art by Jean Tabary
• Self-contained stories that can be read in any order
• European comic-album format with full-colour interiors
Well matched to comic collectors, older children and families reading together, available from Boipoka.
