Cinebook Newsletter 208 - May 2025

 

Dear Reader,

Disaster and calamity are the watchwords for this month – but only between the covers, don’t worry!

For Yoko Tsuno, the disaster occurred in the far-off past – a spaceship lost with all hands in a dangerous part of space. But there are unusual time currents at play, and in the present, the consequences of the accident will have quite an impact on her … and her soul.

Michel Vaillant, meanwhile, is a top competitor in a sport all too used to spectacular tragedies, but the 1970 car racing season was even worse than most. This episode of Legendary Races takes us through a year of hardship and loss that led to a much-needed reform of safety rules on the track – history in the making.

May with Cinebook – women, children, and comics first!
