After a global environmental disaster, mankind has rebuilt, but its
demons are still there. Greed, arrogance ... Romane Pennac fights those
who would abuse nature once again. Volume 1 of 2 of this sequel to
Mermaid Project. Two years have passed since the event of Mermaid
Project, and Romane and Brahim have paid the price of their courage
and integrity. Ignored, even censored, by their superiors, they're now reduced to taking lousy private eye jobs to earn a living.
Meanwhile, though, the same cetaceans whose advanced intelligence the
UN had refused to believe in are attacking fishing trawlers ... with
rockets! Before long, the authorities ask our two investigators to
take their old jobs back ...
When Gomer isn’t unwittingly sabotaging all work at Spirou Magazine, he naps at his desk and dreams of being a handsome, fearless action hero for Miss Jeanne – not realising that this is already how she sees him! But outside the office, out in the city streets, well, that’s Officer Longsnoot’s territory, and between him and gomer – and most importantly Gomer’s often apocalyptically tweaked car – a merciless war of nerves is waged every day!
Romane has gone to Brazil, hoping to renew contact with Delphis, her
dolphin friend, and find an explanation to the ongoing attacks by sea
mammals against human ships and ports. Meanwhile, Brahim and Kruger
continue their investigations in Mozambique. But their enemies, the
white supremacists who still run Algapower, and their terrorist
allies from the American White Army, know they're being hunted, and
have no intention of being stopped again. A fight for the future of
several species begins ...
The Palombian jungle is a cornucopia of strange and mysterious animal and vegetal species. Among those, a butterfly whose female has never been captured is the object of the ambitions of many scientists – and competition causes conflicts. A situation that the Marsupilami, who hates having his nap interrupted, finds positively unacceptable … although the opportunities to play with this new treetop research lab that’s suddenly appeared might make up for the inconvenience!
Music soothes the wild beast – it’s a well-known fact. Though you have to admit it very much depends on the music. Dad’s bagpipes tend to give people murderous ideas, Billy’s flute is torture on all delicate ears … and as for Buddy’s various artistic forays, they generate far more noise than harmony. When all’s said and done, though, there’s nothing like a family jam session to have jolly good fun!
While Jolan and his companions finally learn from Manthor what their
grand destiny will be, Thorgal is still on the trail of the men who
kidnapped his other son, Aniel. Along with jolly mercenary Petrov, he
sails down a frozen river aboard a Blade Ship - a trade vessel
equipped with heavy metal blades to break the ice. The journey is
fraught with dangers - storms, raiders, spies, wild animals ... and a group of shipwrecked Vikings looking for a mysterious chest ...
While on an expedition in Antarctica, the Count of Champignac makes an extraordinary discovery: a still-viable dinosaur egg! Having brought the precious find back to his castle, he invites a few colleagues over – along with Spirou and Fantasio – and sets about hatching the egg. But working towards scientific progress isn’t easy when one is somewhat absent-minded … and saddled with a whimsical Marsupilami ‘assistant’! Soon, life in the village of Champignac becomes rather complicated...
The Civil War rages on. Despite some much-needed victories, losses have been harrowing on the Union side, and volunteers are getting scarce. That leaves conscription, but it’s an extremely unpopular measure – especially because of the possibility to avoid it by paying a sum of money only the rich can afford. Yet the North has little choice but to maintain it … and this is how, in July 1863 in New York City, simmering resentment turns into bloody rioting – with Blutch and Chesterfield caught in the tragic events.
Before Blake & Mortimer, Edgar P. Jacobs had created a first comic
that has now attained mythical status - The U Ray. Here it is now,
finally translated into English. The nation of Norlandia is in
conflict with its powerful rival Austradia. The eminent Professor
Marduk is tasked by the High Council of Norlandia with militarising a
major scientific discovery: the U Ray. However, doing so will require finding a deposit of Uradium, the ore needed to power the ray. And
the only known deposit is in an unexplored volcanic archipelago. An
expedition is quickly put together, but in the shadows, the
Austradian intelligence services are waiting for the moment to act ...
Spirou and Fantasio, paying the Count of Champignac a visit, discover that he is hiding an imposing visitor: a towering Russian genius who has created an anti-gravity ray. Unfortunately, the KGB is already hunting him, because he’s decided he wants to keep his invention secret. And to make things worse, his former associate, who knows almost as much as he about the ray, has been captured by Chinese authorities. Spirou decides it is vital to free the prisoner...
After inadvertently thwarting a convict’s escape attempt, Rin Tin Can flees the penitentiary and ends up with two sheep herders who are being targeted by wool thieves. The robbers, Giuseppe and Aldo, are actually looking for a specific sheep skin tattooed with a treasure map, in order to post their father’s bail. Unwittingly – as usual – Rin Tin Can becomes first the accomplice of the two not-too-bright brothers, then their ‘godfather’ …
Gomer is a genius and a walking hazard - it is known. But often
overlooked is how he's far from the only one. In his daily efforts at
subverting the professional world, he's often accompanied by his
menagerie - trickster cat, temperamental gull, voracious mouse and
even, on occasion, a goldfish - and his brothers in laziness and
silly ideas, Jules and Bertie. Not to mention, sometimes, complete strangers instantly won over by his eagerness and imagination. Much
to the chagrin of various authority figures!
He's the dumbest dog west of the Pecos River, and even when he's not
sharing one of Lucky Luke's adventures, he's still a walking
disaster! The first solo adventure of the only dog stupider than his
own shadow. In a fort on the Frontier, the 7th Cavalry keeps a
vigilant watch over the Wild West. It is a time of peace with the
local Natives, and all is well, thanks - at least in the colonel's
mind - to the regiment's lucky mascot. But when that dog mysteriously
vanishes and bad luck begins to plague the unit, it becomes necessary
to find a replacement. The colonel picks Rin Tin Can for the job ...
and then the real trouble begins!
Tasked by the queen to close the `Septimus Wave' case once and for
all, Captain Blake is facing a daunting task, for many questions
remain unanswered. Where did the spaceship buried beneath London come
from? What became of Lady Rowana and Professor Evangely? Meanwhile,
Mortimer is trying to pull Olrik out of the catatonic state the
villain has been in since his encounter with the ship's occupant. Has the threat to the nation truly been vanquished?
Sometime after their adventures in Attack of the Zordolts, Spirou,
Fantasio and the Count of Champignac have nearly finished repairing
the damage done by Zorglub's ridiculous plans. Until that morning
when they wake up in what appears to be their bedrooms, except ... on
the moon! The moon, yes, where Zorglub - again - has built a massive
laboratory. Unfortunately, the cost of such a construction is colossal, and the somewhat-reformed evil mastermind had to find
financial backers ...
Everything is in place. The radio guidance relays are active, the
Silbervogel, the intercontinental bomber, is operational, and Anna is
ready to fly it to America - a suicide mission. As for Werner, he
seems incapable of fulfilling his mission and killing the beautiful
test pilot, in whom he still sees his childhood friend. The arrival
of Soviet forces, along with the courage of a handful of prisoners and partisans, will give them both one last chance to do the right
thing ... Can they seize it?
It's been several months since the events of The Yellow M, but the
evil of Professor Septimus still echoes around London. Important
figures of the capital's jet set come together around the
questionable values the mad scientist defended. Olrik is forced to
resort to opium in order to forget he was guinea pig. As for
Mortimer, he too is trying, albeit for more humanist reasons, to revive certain aspects of Septimus's work - to Blake's extreme
concern...
Music soothes the wild beast ... and brings down walls! Among all
the things that make Gomer such a lovable rascal, there are two that
are instantly recognisable: his car, and his goofophone. His old
lemon, favourite target of the constabulary and every pedestrian's
nightmare, is responsible for half the pollution in town - as well as
many of the more ... exotic accidents. The rest of the latter are mostly the result of the terrible `musical' instrument put together
by Gomer - stiff competition for the Trumpets of Jericho!
World War Three is over. Basam Damdu has been defeated. England can breathe and begin the rebuilding process ... or so it thinks. In China, unfortunately, Mao's Communists keep bowling over Chiang Kai-shek's troops, and are threatening Hong Kong. And General Xi-Lee, a ruthless warlord, has dreams of becoming the new Qin Shi Huang - first Emperor of China. When a relic of that very emperor is discovered by an acquaintance of Mortimer, things take a turn for the worst ...
The Marduk expedition has returned victorious to Norlandia, bearing a precious sample of Uradium. Now the professor can test his revolutionary U Ray's potency when combined with the miracle ore. But Austradia, the old enemy, won't take this lying down. So the dastardly Captain Dagon didn't succeed in stopping Marduk from finding the Uradium deposit? No matter! The Imperial Austradian Army will simply take possession of it in a military operation - and who cares if that's where Prince Nazca's people live? The eminent Professor Marduk is tasked by the High Council of Norlandia with militarising a major scientific discovery: the U Ray. However, doing so will require finding a deposit of Uradium, the ore needed to power the ray. And the only known deposit is in an unexplored volcanic archipelago. An expedition is quickly put together, but in the shadows, the Austradian intelligence services are waiting for the moment to act ...
Gomer is absolutely peerless when it comes to disrupting life at
Spirou Magazine, much to his boss Prunelle's and long-suffering Mr De
Mesmaeker's chagrin. But don't you go underestimating him! The truth
is that his laziness, his talent for invention and even his love of
animals - not to mention his antiquated lemon of a car- are perfectly
capable of spreading chaos anywhere, in any season. You can't even imagine what he can do when it snows!
