In the second installment of the Marsupilami series, things take a turn toward the strange – and the shadowy. A mysterious creature has appeared deep in the Palombian jungle. It looks like a Marsupilami, yet its behavior is completely different. Frightened villagers, curious scientists, and ruthless hunters soon begin their pursuit, convinced that this “black beast” is a harbinger of trouble. But, as always, the truth is far more nuanced.

This episode delves into the concept of “the other” – that which is unfamiliar, different, potentially dangerous, but also misunderstood. The Black Marsupilami is wild, powerful, and untamed, but not malicious. He stands as a symbol of nature that cannot be controlled, only respected. The story balances thrilling action with humor and surprisingly emotional moments, showcasing scenes of parental care and primal instinct.

With its signature humor and dynamic artwork, this second volume also carries a deeper message: fear often arises from ignorance, and difference is not a threat – it’s an invitation to understanding. This is both epic and tender, and a vital piece of this vibrant jungle saga.
