Dear Reader, | | Welcome to 2024! We hope you saw 2023 off in style and with plenty of joy and comic books, and are ready to face this new year head-on! We begin this slightly warlike January with the conclusion to our World War Two series Bear’s Tooth, and the final collapse of the Third Reich. This part is known, but the comic offers a tantalising, behind-the-scenes ‘what-if’ scenario – and of course, we get to find out what happens to our heroes in the end. Don’t miss it! Next up are The Bluecoats, illustrating with the usual mix of serious research and hilarious shenanigans a not-so-well known chapter of the American Civil War: the Draft Riots of 1863, when civilians in the North revolted against the idea of a draft that rich people could weasel out of. A quick history lesson, just a smidgeon of social commentary, and a whole lot of laughs! Finally, Buck Danny Classics takes us back to the Cold War and the time the Berlin Wall was being built. A spy story in the ‘golden age’ of the CIA vs KGB grudge match, with a healthy dose of aerial derring-do, dastardly villains and apocalyptic stakes. You know … classic Buck Danny! January with Cinebook – read the good fight! | |
