Cinebook The 9th Art Newsletter 126 - June 2018
Right. Now I KNOW what the person was talking about. "Ian" is a new title at Cinebook. So, to the person who asked "when is Ian being released?" just read this! :-)
And, no, I have not included links to other "review" sites because they never promote CBO...and CBO reviews weren't mentioned again so I'm being stroppy!

Dear Reader,
|     |
Have you ever wondered, when reading the adventures of your favourite heroes, what they might have been like as children? What sort of shenanigans they might have been mixed up in even before they reached adulthood? How they met their best friend and trusty sidekick?
Well, we have some answers for you in this regard, with volume 69 ofLucky Luke, where we go back in time and meet the Lonesome Cowboy when he was still a tad slower than his own shadow. Promising boy, though – and already up for some Old West zaniness!
Equally zany but in a much more 'stiff upper lip' way is Clifton, the grouchy, so British, not-quite-ex-secret agent. Retirement is a fleeting thing in the world of Intelligence, and an old boss showing up suddenly is usually bad news – even when it's supposedly just to train a new recruit …
Finally, fans of Valerian & Laureline will be delighted to see volume 5 of The Complete Valerian out – with the usual collection of fantastic stories and extra material presented in a gorgeous hardback edition. You are collecting these already, right … ?
June with Cinebook – like a second childhood!

When Ben Dilworth revealed he had a Golden Belt award for
Haiku and offered up a book titled “Osaka Brutal” my first thought was that I
was going to get a nob-stop martial arts classic based in Osaka , Japan
I was slightly
disappointed.
Osaka Brutal is a
collection of llustrated Japanese Haiku by a very tall Englishman living in Japan . If you have never come across Haiku before
this may surprise you but there are a great many people in the UK and Europe
with an intense interest in the art.

why not enjoy a good read prose as much as a comic strip read?

Murdering Ghouls. Satanic Masses. Demonic Possession. Werewolves. Poltergeists. Vampires. To many of the uninitiated these are just “things that go bump in the night” -TV or film fantasy.
In the Victorian era, The Phantom Detective used his decades of occult study to help those in danger from these “things” and he paid the ultimate price…. ….
Yet he continues to help and to observe as best he can for now he is a true...
PHANTOM DETECTIVE!
From one of the UK's most under -rated comic creators, Ben R. Dilworth, comes new life breathed into and a new slant given to the adventures of the former mortal who has become one of the Watchers -forbidden to act even to save a life from supernatural forces. Except "rules are there to be broken or at the very least stretched until you can see through them!"
The much anticipated collection from the co-creator of Peter Wisdom and artist of Mark Millar's The Shadowmen!

Wilberforce -A Jack's Lot Is Not A Happy One!
Wilberforce
By Ben R. Dilworth
Paperback

Price: £5.00 (excl. VAT)

Wilberforce—a Sergeant on the Metropolitan Police Detective
Force. But Wilberforce was no common
“Jack” (police officer).
Even before working with the famous Chung Ling Soo (The Case
Of The Thames Serpent), Wilberforce had “tasted the chin strap” on many tough
cases –even a stint in the Army saw him used because of his detective skills.
Here, Ben R. Dilworth, gives us a sneak peek into
Wilberforce’s Case Notes for 1896.
“A Jack’s lot is not a happy one” and Wilberforce was not
just dealing with the ordinary criminals such as the nobblers, rampsmen,
smashers, mobsmen, snoozers and skinners….
...there were the spectres, the satanic followers, vampires
and other
monsters —things the ordinary copper never usually
encountered and often scoffed at the stories of.
Wilberforce knew
better.
