Den Helder (Noord-Holland) 2021
Deze leeuwen hebben een grote mond. Zouden ze die waar maken, als het erop aan komt?
Gezien in in het Koninklijk Instituut voor de Marine (KIM).

The last frame of the comic, Thorfinn, by Danish cartoonist Claus Deleruan. He is one of the inspirations for my Phill from GCHQ comic (which I plan to take up again in january - I still have one album to finish). This is an open ending where Thorfinn meets the people who are depicted on the Danish Royal coat of arms as shield supporters.
You can read about these wild men here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wild_man
Typically, and definitely in the tradition of Scandinavia where we like to imagine that nature is populated with other humanlike races like trolls and elves and huldre, Deleruan have invented both woman and children for the wild men.
