Welcome to the heart of the Palombian jungle, home to one of the most original and elusive creatures ever imagined in the world of comics – the Marsupilami! In the very first album of this legendary and delightfully absurd series, we are introduced to this extraordinary animal in its natural environment. Created by André Franquin, this book opens the doors to a fantastic world where exotic flora and fauna hold more wisdom (and danger) than meets the eye.

The Marsupilami is a creature like no other – using its long tail as an extra limb, a tool for movement, protection, and mischief. Alongside its equally clever and playful family, it bounces through the jungle, dodging traps, outsmarting predators, and surprising readers at every turn. Through a series of gags and adventures, we don’t just get to know the yellow jungle acrobat, but also discover the richness of the world it inhabits – a world filled with humor, danger, and subtle commentary on human nature.

Though set in an imaginary jungle, this comic brims with life and universal themes. Seen through the eyes of researchers trying to capture the Marsupilami, Franquin paints a portrait of humanity’s relationship with nature – and everything we lose when we stop observing the world with curiosity and respect. This first volume is the perfect entry point for anyone eager to dive into the unique humor, energy, and charm of the series.
