The perfect gift DOES exist
Whether you are giving or receiving them (ideally both), gifts always make you feel good. And who says that the perfect gift doesn’t exist?
Because all creative minds, especially writers, will love Sean Murphy’s The Plot Holes. We all need guardian angels, but guardians who give you fresh ideas and help write great stories? Sounds quite perfect!
Joan Sfar’s and Benjamin Chaud’s fans surely can’t wait to get their hands on the second volume of Héliotrope, because this young thief has already stolen their hearts. Also, those that feel deeply for monsters and witches will find a nice treat in the grand finale of Arthur de Pins’ Zombillénium.
And let’s be honest, is there a better present for music lovers than an illustrated biography of their favorite band? And if, by chance, their favorite band is The Clash or Pink Floyd, well, the gift is simply great!
So, get something nice for your loved ones, and have a lovely Christmas!

Paris, 1950s.
Little Claude is 14 years old. Too old to be a child, too young to be a real adult. One Wednesday during the September holiday, Little Claude is bored and he has nothing to do. So he just hangs around the “fortifs”, where those rejected by society live. He wanders down the streets and stops in front of cinemas and newsstands, where the illustrated magazines that allow him to dream are piled up.
One day, a certain Pépé offers him and his friend Marcel to “take a bite” out of his next job. Nothing dangerous, and easy money, Pépé promises. With that money, Claude could buy an electric phone and a suit. Maybe even a motorbike. And seduce the girls, finally…

Publisher: Urban Comics
Genres:

The Plot Holes are a squad of fictional warriors who transport themselves into the pages of other books, using their unique skills to save the plots in order to stop them from being destroyed. And Cliff is their newest recruit, a comic creator who’s just realized his world isn’t real—in fact, it’s a complete fiction that literally exists inside a novel. The other members are misfits like him, pulled from unpublished books that couldn’t be saved: a manga samurai, a barbarian tiger, a kid from a comic strip, and a vampire assassin. Outclassed by the other members, Cliff sets out to prove his worth to The Plot Holes as they fight to save as many books as possible. The only thing stopping them is Surge, an ex-member who’s gone rogue—not only is he threatening to destroy the digital matrix containing them, he threatens to destroy the database of digital libraries all over the world!
