Cinebooks

New Fabien Vehlmann series coming in July, Marquis of Anon, I look forward to any books by this author.

Still not read Green Manor, is it good - well I assume youi reckon so! Looks like he's done something with Sean Philips - interested to see that...

Was Kenya book 1 a self contained tale or the beginning of a two-five part story? I tend to buy cinebooks series in complete arcs rather than one book at a time.

[Tombo]

I think its a pair of five book cycles, Kenya and Namibia.  There's not many English sources on the net, Cinebooks only covers the volumes they've translated.

[Colin YNWA]

Yeah Kenya is 5 books and I think you are right about the second cycle from what I've been able to dig out. I think Cinebook have all of Kenya out now, or will ahve soon. No doubt Numibia will be along shortly?

[Hawkmumbler]

Volume 3 of Kenya is due in a month or so I think. If it's released entirely by Thought Bubble it's a deffinet purchase, seeing as book 6 of Antares is MIA and I don't want to be left wanting it. As it is, Red Baron, Valerian, and Long John Silver are all deffinelty on the cards.

Green Manor is great fun. I think I heard somewhere that there's a third volume awaiting translation.

Green Manor is great fun - essentially a series of locked-room-type murder mysteries/Victorian-era Future Shocks. So no recurring characters, no ongoing plot of any kind, but a lot of twist-in-the-tale vignettes.

The third book has been 'awaiting' translation since 2008, though, so I'm not holding my breath for that one.

7 Psychopaths was a very offbeat WWII story, it's alright.

Did anyone pick up Barracuda? Recommended?

[Bolt-01]

I've got the first volume of Barracuda waiting for me in my reading pile. It looks superb.

[Grey M@a]

Picked up the four volumes of Long John Silver, I assume there was only the four?

Also tempted to get all the XIII volumes. Read a sample years ago that came with Comic Heroes and liked it so will check that out.

Any other recommendations?

[Colin YNWA]

Almost too many to mention but Leo's Aldebaran series is pretty fantastic comics. I'm also a bit fan of Scorpion.

There are many more, just look through this thread.So far to be honest of the volumes I've read I've only not loved Crusade and I know that has fans here.

[CrazyFoxMachine]

I really love Orbital as well and Thorgal for my Viking fix.

This is good enough for me. Ta mucho Bolt.

[Grey M@a]

Was just looking at getting volume 1 of Barracuda, could be due to the fact of coming off a reading binge of Long John Silver.

Also looking at picking up Red Baron and SAM and see what those are like.
