The Marduk expedition has returned victorious to Norlandia, bearing a precious sample of Uradium. Now the professor can test his revolutionary U Ray’s potency when combined with the miracle ore. But Austradia, the old enemy, won’t take this lying down. So the dastardly Captain Dagon didn’t succeed in stopping Marduk from finding the Uradium deposit? No matter! The Imperial Austradian Army will simply take possession of it in a military operation – and who cares if that’s where Prince Nazca’s people live? The eminent Professor Marduk is tasked by the High Council of Norlandia with militarising a major scientific discovery: the U Ray. However, doing so will require finding a deposit of Uradium, the ore needed to power the ray. And the only known deposit is in an unexplored volcanic archipelago. An expedition is quickly put together, but in the shadows, the Austradian intelligence services are waiting for the moment to act ...
New York, 1954. Sur le toit d’un immeuble, une jeune femme s’occupe patiemment des ruches qui l’entourent et semble attendre quelque chose. Dans l’immeuble d’en face, un caïd de la pègre reste cloîtré chez lui à l’exception d’une mystérieuse sortie hebdomadaire. Ils ne se connaissent pas, mais ils se voient. Entre eux, le vide, une voiture de flics et un parc dont l’accès est réservé à quelques privilégiés. Qu’est-ce qui pourrait lier cette ancienne danseuse de l’Opéra de Paris et cet homme insaisissable que tout le monde craint ?
Before Blake & Mortimer, Edgar P. Jacobs had created a first comic that has now attained mythical status – The U Ray. Here it is now, finally translated into English. The nation of Norlandia is in conflict with its powerful rival Austradia. The eminent Professor Marduk is tasked by the High Council of Norlandia with militarising a major scientific discovery: the U Ray. However, doing so will require finding a deposit of Uradium, the ore needed to power the ray. And the only known deposit is in an unexplored volcanic archipelago. An expedition is quickly put together, but in the shadows, the Austradian intelligence services are waiting for the moment to act ...
Peintre des silences et des solitudes embarquées, Christian Cailleaux ne prétend pas faire le tour du sujet mais avec une économie de moyens et une palette nuancée de dessins, il s’applique à montrer des situations complexes ou romanesques, autant que d’illustrer des voix fragiles ou théoriques. Embarqué est un documentaire émouvant et inédit dans sa forme, un portrait à facettes des hommes et des femmes, de la jeunesse qui a fait le choix de la mer comme univers professionnel tout autant que comme cadre de vie ; une place difficile à tenir, parfois. Un voyage ailleurs et loin au cœur d’un équipage militaire, vigie des zones de pêche et sentinelle pour les communautés sc...
Este é a Sequela do livro “Raio U”, segundo as personagens de Edgar P.Jacobs. O cruel Babylos III, Imperador da Austrália, ordena ao General Robioff, líder supremo do seu exército, que tome as Ilhas Negras e o seu precioso depósito de urânio. Este metal extremamente raro, associado ao famoso raio “u”, deveria de facto permitir a criação de uma arma apocalíptica. É o segredo desta arma que o Professor Marduk revela ao Grande Conselho de Norlândia, inimigo jurado da Austrália. Mas além da guerra que se inicia e das tentativas do adversário de se apoderar do segredo, o uso do urádio, “pedra da vida e da morte”, é proibido por Puncha Taloc, o deus do fogo, protetor das Ilhas Negras. Os nossos heróis terão, portanto, muito que fazer para sair do terrível dilema que os enfrentará...
Contributions by Jônathas Miranda de Araújo, Guillaume de Syon, Hugo Frey, Kenan Koçak, Andrei Molotiu, Annick Pellegrin, Benjamin Picado, Vanessa Meikle Schulman, Matthew Screech, and Gwen Athene Tarbox As the creator of Tintin, Hergé (1907–1983) remains one of the most important and influential figures in the history of comics. When Hergé, born Georges Prosper Remi in Belgium, emerged from the controversy surrounding his actions after World War II, his most famous work leapt to international fame and set the standard for European comics. While his style popularized what became known as the “clear line” in cartooning, this edited volume shows how his life and art turned out much ...
Diego l'Angolais - le matelot à quai - et Théo - l'ancien marin apprenti écrivain - arpentent les quais du port de Lisbonne à la poursuite de leurs rêves d'enfance, magnifiés par la mémoire ou abîmés par la réalité. Ainsi, d'espoirs chimériques en vraies blessures, Diego et Théo réinventent leur existence, dans l'attente d'un départ qui n'aura peut-être jamais lieu. Prématurément disparu en 2010, Bernard Giraudeau signe ici son ouvrage ultime, ciselé avec passion pour l'âpre élégance du trait de Christian Cailleaux. Traversé par les thématiques chères aux deux auteurs complices - la mer, l'amour et l'amitié -, ce récit évoque avec puissance et émotion ces traversées au long cours qui mènent des contrées du rêve aux rivages de la vie.
