The BOULEVARD:

The album tells some chapters of life of: Horse, the gentleman-farmer; Indian, with no sense of direction, who is fearful and who has only one fixed idea: steal Steven's tractor; cowboy, a day gulped down with a piece of meteorite which transformed him into Cob' Hulk; Steven (in the screen, Steven has the voice of Beno t Poelvoorde) the farmer who eats only the pig bought in edges from the supermarket and who is capable of terrible anger (especially when they prick him his tractor), and Jeannine, passionate in contemporary painting, the same without sound to spread his continental toasts to the whole pig

Panic in the village, it is also in Spirou
