BATTLE BOOK GN #2 (OF 3)
(W) Patrick Rambaud (A) Ivan Gill
May 1809. Napoleon's Grande Armée has taken Vienna and is preparing to cross the Danube, but the Austrians are waiting for him in Essling. The battle has been joined. On this first day, Massena desperately holds onto Aspern, the French cavalry charges again and again, but the Emperor cannot seem to break the Austrians. Louis-Francois, stuck on the wrong side of the only available bridge, impatiently waits for repairs to conclude.
BLAKE & MORTIMER GN #27
CALL OF THE MOLOCH
(W) Jean Dufaux (A) Christian Cailleaux (CA) Ted Benoit
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?
HSE HUMAN STOCK EXCHANGE GN #1
(W) Xavier Dorison (A) Thomas Allart (CA) Morris
In a far too near-future, the world's economy has collapsed. Amidst an unprecedented recession, the only remaining bastion of capitalist prosperity is the new "Human Stock Exchange," where individuals are listed on the market. Felix Fox sells cars over the phone, a poorly paid, thankless, dead-end job. But he is determined to make it big, at any cost. When the opportunity arises to be listed on the HSE, though, will the cost turn out to be too high? The first volume of a painfully plausible trilogy.
