Cinebook Ltd Newsletter 205 - January 2025

Their joy at being test pilots again is short-lived: they are in fact to test and train an artificial intelligence program that could very well one day replace them in the cockpit of a fighter jet … Read more Blake & Mortimer The Complete Collection 3 Blake & Mortimer The Complete Collection 4 North-American readers, to locate a comic book shop near you that stocks or can order these titles and many more, use this handy Read more   Or, if you're a retailer yourself, please go to: Read more The Bluecoats 18 Duel in the Channel Harry Dickson 2 The Court of Terror
