Le Monde Do Blake & Mortimer!
Emile Schwarz posted some news over at the Euro Comics group[http://groups.yahoo.com/group/eurocomics] which should interest those of you living in France:
“The first book to be reprinted and available today is “Le secret de l’espadon”.
There will be 12 books to be reprinted (12 Blake and Mortimer albums ?)
I just hear an advertising on the RTL radio (French).
They also said “original colors”. I will watch carefully later this morning.”
Emile came up trumps with more info:
“First of all, the newspaper web site url is:
http://www.lemonde. fr/
Nota: I do not found any entry that talks about ‘Blake et Mortimer’…
In the newspaper, they had the rightmost column with a color photo about this reprint done for the 20th anniversary of E.P. Jacobs death.
Starting on saturday, 5 october 2007 with a reprint of “Le secret de l’espadon” (tome 1) and therefore every each other saturday, Le Monde will reprint the 12 albums of the collection.
The twelve albums are:
