MILLA PALONIEMI: The Cursing Hedgehog

We all love hedgehogs, don't we? How could anybody fail to be charmed by the cute and bashful little creatures? There's one, though, that's a bit different from the rest...

Irascible, aggressive, and foul-mouthed, this is one hedgehog you wouldn't want to see waddling across your patio in search of trouble. Only a fool would mess with him, but under his spines he can be a softie too, a frustrated romantic who sometimes just needs a hug from his grandma.

The Cursing Hedgehog by Milla Paloniemi (1983–) is a bestselling and award winning Finnish comic strip that has reached its fifth collection in the original language. This is the first time the hedgehog has been spotted cursing in English. Welcome to the real world of hedgehogs! #%**¤!
