  4. In Shadows will get a physical release this year from NBM renamed Darkly She Goes. Upside, they'll keep it in European standard size and won't shrink it down to US standard, so Absolute/Library sized. One of my most anticipated releases this year for sure.

    Check out Giant from NBM too. Fantastic story and art of course IMO. If you want a Swedish series, check out Vei from Insight Comics. Since I've been on a European Comics kick the last two years or something I could recommend thousands of books 😀 but check out Titan Comics, Cinebooks, Ablaze etc. that does have them. There is so much great stuff and superior art IMO 🙂

  5. This is great content!!! I really hope you will do more European comics in the future. The dream of Jerusalem is a great epic! Another historical Belgian comic I can really recommend is Murena by Dufaux and Delaby. It is about Emperor Nero. 👍👍👍

  8. Thanks for these recommendations, I haven't read anything by Europe so I'll check them out!

    My favourite smaller UK publishers are Avery Hill Press (check out the Ismyre series or The Impending Blindness of Billie Scot) and Nobrow (check out Thieves or Skip).

  9. Fascinating how all these books look quite similar in terms of frames, planes, storytelling and even inking. Not much risk was taken in building action, angles, perspectives. I feel the art is quite conservative in european comics, beautiful but not particularly appealing to me. Just an opinion.

  11. Nice choices. All the previous mentiones are good picks. Some I have read:
    Western; Undertaker or Lucky Luke (all ages)

    Noir; Blacksad or Black Angel

    War; Children of The Resistance or The Jewish Brigade

    Fantasy; Conquest or Thorgal

    Timetravel; Frnk

    Dystopia; Gypsy or Mutations

    Sports; Michel Vaillant 2.0 or Louca

    Financial thriller; Hedge Fund or HSE

    Horror; Green Class or Raptors

    Historical; Game of Masks or Eagles of Rome

    Pirates; Raven or The Campbells

    Thrillers; XIII or Vertigo

    Sci-Fi; Valerian or Ian

    Etc etc 😂😇

    And these are the ones at Europe Comics.
    Asterix is another timeless classic.
    I would also recommend everything from Romain Hugault; women and airplanes.

    enjoy your new fountain of stories and art

  12. Hey, Mike! Thanks for doing a video on European Comics! On their homepage, it says they have "partners"/publishers connected to them. Here are a few:
    •Cinebook
    •Dargaud
    •Le Lombard
    …etc…
    Well, you know I love westerns, & the American publishers don't have anywhere near the interest in doing westerns as the Europeans do! So, here is a list of my favorite westerns from Europe Comics & its "partners":
    ▪︎UNDERTAKER[6-VOL. SERIES > IN ENGLISH ON COMIXOLOGY]*ONE OF THE GREATEST WESTERN GN SERIES OF ALL-TIME, IMHO!
    ▪︎COMANCHE[1ST 3 VOLS. > IN ENGLISH ON COMIXOLOGY]
    ▪︎WESTERN[OGN > FOUND THE TPB IN ENGLISH ON AMAZON]
    ▪︎WYOMING DOLL[OGN > FOUND THE TPB IN ENGLISH ON AMAZON]
    ▪︎SYKES[OGN > IN ENGLISH ON COMIXOLOGY]
    ▪︎TEXAS JACK[2-VOL. SERIES > IN ENGLISH ON COMIXOLOGY]*THE CREATORS OF "SYKES" ALSO DID THESE BOOKS, & SOME CHARACTERS FROM "SYKES" EVEN PLAY A BIG ROLE IN THESE BOOKS— IT'S A SHARED UNIVERSE!
    ▪︎LONESOME[VOLS. 1-3 > AVAILABLE IN ENGLISH ON COMIXOLOGY; NOT SURE IF SERIES ENDS W/V.3, AS I'VE ONLY READ V.1 SO FAR]
    ▪︎RAIN WOLF[2-VOL. SERIES > IN ENGLISH ON COMIXOLOGY]
    ▪︎WILD WEST[3 VOLS SO FAR > 1ST 2 VOLS. IN ENGLISH ON COMIXOLOGY; NOT SURE IF OR WHEN VOL. 3 WILL BE RELEASED IN ENGLISH]
    Well, that's some of my faves I European western-themed gns & series[I'd add others, like "BOUNCER," for example(which is published by Humanoids, & is not a "Partner" of Europe Comics), but I'm not sure if the others are partners w/Europe Comics, either. But, "BLUEBERRY," "TEX," & "DURANGO" are a few other European western comics that I love!
    Looking forward to your next video! Hope you & Matt & your families are doing well! Until next time! 😊 👍🏻 👍🏻 ❤

  13. It always puzzled me the fact that a huge market, like the English language one, really pays little attention to European comics. Besides the usual suspects only a infinitesimal amount makes it to theirs english print version equivalent. Unlike manga the European album format seems to have a hard time penetrating the North American market. Wrong marketing techniques, not enough promotion, different reading habits? Maybe all of them. Anyway some publishers have been making an effort to bring good titles at their original format, but still it’s not enough.
