I had a look at Crusades. Is it historical with a touch of supernatural or full on monsters and magic?

I think I'm going to go for Cape Horn as it seems to be oversized too so it's a bargain at least. I don't see the logic of not having Blieberry in print. Seems like a no brainer when you consider how many people like me are being kept from reading it.

It's historical but lots of action and there is only one type of monster they are fighting against.
Cape horn is actually absolute sized.

I'm gonna put Crusades on my list. Cape Horn is a no brainer then for £15.

I think so. These are the dimensions listed on Book Depository:

210 x 279 x 5mm

Received Little Tulip a few weeks ago and can confirm those dimensions are accurate. Eurocomics USA Invasion's facebook page posted today that the book has a few scenes that were censored:

In the US edition 2 different scenes have been edited due to their explicit sexual content. Both sequences depict sexual encounters between a 7 year old boy and an adult woman in a Soviet gulag around 1948.
A total of 8 panels in 3 different pages have been altered: 7 of them have been completely re-drawn and the eighth one has been trimmed off, in order to eliminate all the explicit depictions of female nudity and the performance of sexual acts contained in the original version.
All these artwork modifications have been done by François Boucq himself.

This is great news indeed: Franquin's "Gaston", one of if not the greatest funny of all time, will finally be published in English:

Talking about Gaston, there is another complete French collection boxset scheduled for April. The price is huge though (299€).

seems like even though IDW decided not to put Corto in hardcover we will get another Pratt series in hc:

Reading through my Manara collection and the Djinn series, these European comics are amazing.

OMG! They didn't translate it before?!?

Great news for all of the English readers indeed!

I hope that Franquin's Idées Noires will be translated too if it hasn't been done already. Franquin is an absolute genius!

Awesome! Loving Corto, so by all means: more Hugo Pratt!

Can't recall if we talked about this yet but IDW-Euro comics is releasing another hc in September Jerome K. Jerome Bloche. Never heard about this but it looks good and so far I like the IDW-EC output. Again, it's weird that this and a lesser known Pratt book gets the hc treatment while Corto and Flight of the Raven (which is apparently the new hot #&@) or Dieter Lumpen only gets paperbacks. And sadly it seems like anything with colour is only oversized and not European sized like Corto. A little size uniformity would be nice especially with the cover prices of these books. (the next Corto volume is only like 64 pages but basically will cost the same as the previous ones).
