Marcus Garner again? The guy too stubborn to die and too jaded to care about the fantasy world created by his authors?The guy who swears so much that the publisher had to censor him?Well, he’s back. And, good news, he’s got to sit through a full introduction to Behind the Scenes of Reality for the first six pages! Enjoy! After that, it’s back to the serious stuff: fighting, monsters and shitty humour… In the end, this volume 2 is a bit like when your pork butcher asks you: “There’s a bit more, shall I put it on anyway?”
La Reine blanche
Despite some encouraging leads, Avril knew little more about his mysterious origins, apart from the fact that Anne Boleyn was not his mother after all, even though it was she who had brought him to Le Clos Lucé as a baby.
Intégrale Les Aventures de la Mort et Lao-Tseu
Mowing down lives may be a full-time job, but it’s also a fantastic opportunity to meet people from all walks of life. And then, from time to time, between appointments, you can take a little break with Lao-Tseu, your pet philosophical pig. The only real problem is the customers: between the recalcitrant ones, the human laws and above all their unfair competition, the job becomes a real priesthood. But when you love it, you don’t count the hours!
London Burning
London, May 1941. Kate is a young Polish woman who has settled in England. (Her mother was the daughter of an English Lord.) Like many other young women with ambitions to fly, she has become a pilot and joined the volunteer Air Transport Army (ATA). She is taking life as it comes with her boyfriend Jim Berry, an Oxford graduate whose father is a Member of Parliament and a friend of Churchill, and the two of them, aware that life in wartime is fragile, have decided not to take anything too seriously. But when Russia, which invaded Poland at the start of the war, suddenly becomes Britain’s ally in the fight against the Axis forces, Kate finds the new alignment hard to stomach.
Crimes-sur-mer
The time has come for Ric Hochet to face his worst nightmare: August, a crime-ridden month if ever there was one! Ric is reduced to enduring the banalities of his beach neighbours. So when young Beatrice arrives and asks him if she can play at burying him, it’s almost a relief. And since the innocent child has two killers on her tail, kidnapping her on behalf of a mysterious “boss”, Ric’s business should soon be back on track. Phew!
The Frontier – Tome 3
The Frontier soldiers throw everything they’ve got into the battle to prevent Mr Bone from carrying out his sinister plan to bring the demon Obscurity back to Earth. But nothing works!

Rouge Alcatraz
Lieutenant Jones continues her pilot training at the Patuxent River Naval Academy, where she continues to prove her expertise in close-combat techniques and even more so in the handling of various flying machines. While some people are born with a silver spoon in their mouth, she was certainly born with little golden wings on her back.
Meanwhile, the two dangerous Native American activists Karkajou and Crow Dog, who have taken over the island of Alcatraz, defy the American government to enforce the many treaties they have signed and obtain civil rights. After his escape, Jones’s older brother Marcus joins their ranks. President Dixon instructs General Ben Carrington to use every means possible to resolve the crisis at Alcatraz: the Red Warriors are holding a hundred hostages, including a dozen women and children. The general needs an officer to assist him, and who better than Jones to do the job?
L’or de Saïgon
On 30 April 1975, the Viet Cong invaded Saigon in a frenzied mess. For the Americans, it was the end of the Vietnam War, which had cost them 58,000 dead and more than 300,000,000 wounded. All for nothing.
But not in the eyes of a U.S. colonel who, instead of fleeing like the others, instructed a young lieutenant in the Green Berets to seize an armoured car leaving the National Bank of South Vietnam in a hurry with 20,000 kilos of 24-carat gold on board.
Having succeeded, the two men crossed the border into Cambodia, where a heavy C-130 was waiting. But before loading the van, the colonel tried to kill the young Green Beret, unaware that he had kept the key to the armoured door protecting the ingots. Fortunately, the colonel misses and takes off with the van.
