Rémy has chosen…
Urban Comics publishes on October 13 Green Arrow Rebirth – Volume 1. Finally the return of the Green Archer within the catalog of the publisher with a series eagerly awaited by fans. Indeed, during the New 52, the iconic character of Black Canary had been separated from Green Arrow. This new series marks its comeback and we can't wait to see what the duo will bring. With drawings that seem to give a second youth to the archer, let's hope that this publication will keep all its promises!

On October 12, thanks to Futuropolis editions, you will be able to discover the adaptation of the cult novel Balzac and the little Chinese tailor in comics! Published in 2000 by Gallimard, this novel by Dai Sijie told the story of two teenagers sent to the countryside to be educated during the Cultural Revolution in China in the 70s. They discovered a suitcase of forbidden books that would change their lives and that of the daughter of a Chinese tailor, with whom they of course fell in love…! Drawings by Freddy Nadolny Pustoshkin.
Kurai has chosen…
The famous little virtual barbarian returns in a 16th opus to once again escape the fatality of the GAME OVER. Whether it's trying to jump off a cliff to reach the other side or killing the princess he was supposed to save, the number of failures will always pile up more and more for this poor hero. Very short gags that are not more than one page, but that always make their effect. A big congratulations to Midam who knows how to find a host of originality in each volume with such a simple formula. This volume will be released on October 3, 2017 by Glénat and we are already looking forward to the next ones.
Thomas has chosen…
Mike Carey presents Hellblazer – Volume 1 is the continuation of the series on the character of John Constantine. A jaded inspector of the paranormal is found dead. How will he take advantage of this situation to rediscover his family? To discover at Urban Comics from October 13th.
Coffee and Thomas have chosen…
In a post-internet world where the slightest secret of humanity has been revealed by the crash of the "Cloud", the population lives daily masked in order to protect what little privacy remains. Private Eye features screenwriter Brian K. Vaughan (SAGA, Y The Last Man…) and cartoonist Marcos Martin (Mark Waid's Daredevil) to deliver a critique of our connected society and the terrible consequences that can be taken on our privacy. Initially published online by its authors, Urban Comics offers this story of anticipation in its Urban Strips collection, with its Italian comic book format! In bookstores on October 6.
