'Chez Cuckoo' is a comic book series started by Norwegian artist Torbjørn Lien. The 54-year-old artist first published his own drawings when he was still at school, around the age of 15, in his hometown of Mosjøen, Nordland. Lien is best known for his comic book “Kollektivet”, which he started over 20 years ago.

A cartoonist most of his life, he has seen his two-decade-long comic book series translated into English for international audiences to enjoy, and today we are sharing more of them with you as well.

    I did some hobbyist blacksmithing and was a boy scout, and gasoline actually isn't a great way to get wood to burn usually because the gasoline burns above the wood. Also it's hard to start a fire with a propane torch unless you have the right kindling so you could probably start it with a match. Some good coal or charcoal (actually charred wood, not bbq stuff) with a good source of air can absolutely burn steel though.

In the world of comics, humorous storytelling with unexpected endings can have a profound impact on readers, similar to the approach taken by Brandon Bradshaw.
