Benny Breakiron 09 (New Edition) #9

Benny is a little boy who would really like to be perfectly normal – if it weren't for his incredible strength. Uprooting trees, jumping higher than a house or hurling cars through the air with his bare hands? No problem for Benny. The harder part is dosing his powers properly in daily life: everything he touches breaks easily, and so at first nobody wants to play with him.

Only when Benny has a cold do his powers leave him – then he really is just a well-behaved little boy. But rudeness and criminal dealings are anathema to him, so he keeps getting tangled up in adventures where he can put his super-strength to good use. As long as he doesn't catch a cold, villains and crooks barely stand a chance.

A charming classic by Peyo (known from “Johann and Peewit” and “The Smurfs”), which he developed in the 1960s together with Will and other colleagues and which was later continued by his son Thierry Culliford with Studio Peyo.
