WOOOHOOO!!!
I've wanted to read Corto ever sense I heard about it and held off on the release from two years ago when I heard how botched it was.

That Son of the gun book looks nice, anybody read it?

Nope haven't read it, but it's Jodorowsky with Bess so that's a must buy for me.
I really enjoyed reading Fish too, but 11$ is a little expensive though for 24 pages stapled comic. I highly recommend Leaning Girl... check a few pages back for a video and some background story.
I have already purchased Arsene Schrauwen from the Fantagraphics kickstarter. And I'm also getting Pascal Rabaté's Street View and The Third Testament volume 2. Undecided yet on Shamanism, but since I already have so many books in August I might get that one later. I enjoyed Baranko's Jihad, so going on that I would probably like this one too. Choices choices...

I feel very fortunate that in the three years or so since I made a point to seek out European comics that the translation and publication of all this material has really started revving up here in the U.S.
Anybody get a copy of Naja? Amazon market place has copies, but IST and CGN never did offer it for sale. Hate to think I missed it.
trying to be nicer
My Naja order on the German amazon says it will be shipped on the 2nd of August.
Things are getting better and better with Titan Comics. Not only did they promise to publish two eurocomics every month starting September, but they'll be publishing an omnibus of Universal War One!!! The book has previously been published by Marvel's Epic imprint, but now a completely new omnibus edition from Titan Comics is on it's way early in 2015. Also I don't know how they do it, but it will just be $25.99 http://www.amazon.com/UNIVERSAL-WAR-...dp/1782762388/
That is really nice, to bad i've read it, i would be more interested in the second series.
Oversized book that would really make me happy is Orbital by Runberg & Pellé, really liked the art on those panels, and the story ofc.
Anyway, on holidays as of now, a lot of catch ups to do.
Let's hope that publication of Universal War One is an indicator of Titan also publishing Universal War Two in the future. It was up to Bajran himself to decide to which company he would sell the English language rights, so hopefully that's the same for UW2. I'm not sure how that works now that Casterman is publishing that series and UW1 was by Soleil. UW2 started of very promising though and I can't wait for the second volume later this year.
And regarding Orbital.... That series is published by Cinebook in English at 28.7x21.7cm softcovers, so you might want to delve into that. Not sure how censored that would be, since Cinebook have a habit of censoring art. http://www.cinebook.co.uk/index.php?cPath=175

Just found this topic today, of course I love Eurocomics!
My alltime favourites are:
- The Incal (+ Before Incal + Final Incal)
- The Saga of The Meta-Barons (+Castaka)
- Valérian and Laureline
- Bouncer (by jodorowsky)
- Hatzfeld tetralogy (by Bilal)
I strongly recomend them all!
