Cinebook Ltd Newsletter 157 - January 2021

 

Dear Reader,

Welcome to a long-awaited 2021! Shiny and new, here’s a year with plenty of promise and hope, and it had better deliver!

As for us, we’re opening the year with a definite martial touch, starting with the return of Buck Danny, who is still chasing Lady X, a deadly virus, and … love way down south beyond the Antarctic circle. The heat is on, but do dress warmly anyway …

Next stop: Austria, 1809, and the second part of The Battle. Napoleon’s will drives his soldiers onwards against all odds, but the Austrians are no pushovers, and despite the carnage refuse to give up. All rests on a single, all too fragile bridge – lifeline, or deadly trap?

Finally, for a more humorous (though never forgiving) take on the great calamity of war, let’s meet up with our old friends The Bluecoats as the Union’s desperate need for troops sends them on a disastrous recruiting drive. If only civil war was always this funny …

January with Cinebook: chaaaaaaaarge!
