Comic book enthusiasts will certainly remember this recognizable character among thousands, the Grand Duduche. Tall and slender, wearing round glasses, he did not really go unnoticed. As the fiftieth anniversary of May 68 looms, Glénat editions give this creation of Cabu the opportunity to return.

The first appearance of the character dates back to the magazine Pilote. We have seen in recent years the Grand Duduche in the pages of Charlie Hebdo since its creator (who died in 2015 in the attack on the satirical newspaper) continued to use it in his latest graphic achievements. The particular style of the draftsman and his innate sense of observation allowed him to make this character a reference. 

Glénat celebrates May 1968 from April 26 with an issue that will be 100 pages and cost 6.95 euros. It will take up the best adventures and boards of the Grand Duduche. A substantial circulation of 40,000 copies for this magazine that will mark the great return to newsstands of a publisher who does not hesitate to take risks. Its duration of availability will be 2 months. 

This issue dedicated to the Grand Duduche inaugurates the Glénat collection present. The objective is to take up the best works of humorous authors. Among the authors who will have the honor of joining this magazine, we will find Vuillemin and his dirty jokes on June 26; Wolinski's Travels from August 26; and finally, to end the year in style, The Women of Reiser from October 26.
