LES OBJETS DU DÉSIR AU JAPON (OBJECTS OF DESIRE IN JAPAN) Drugstore Format: 19 x 24,6 cm / One shot / 300 pages (This is not a comic book) A new journey through Japanese pleasure territory, Japanese objects fascinate the French who buy into “cool culture” with a growing appetite: miniature zen gardens, USB-SUSHI keys, animated figurines in resin, ‘Hello Kitty’ vibrator. The attraction of “made in Japan” includes of course eroticism. This work makes a census of the craziest objects taking Japanese aesthetic tradition as much into consideration as high technology For the first time, here is a work whose aim is to take a census of the craziest objects, being interested as much in Japanese aesthetic tradition as in its high technology. All these objects are analysed and put into a historical context. An elegant, indecent, sensual and disturbing toy collection. L’IMAGINAIRE ÉROTIQUE AU JAPON (EROTIC IMAGINATION IN JAPAN) Drugstore Format: 19 x 24,6 cm / One shot / 352 pages (This is not a comic book) L’imaginaire érotique au Japon offers a decoding of current fantasies, and brings up the exhaustive picture of Japanese morals right back to their source. In revealing the origin of common or rare obsessions experienced by 127 million people on this archipelago in suspense, shaken constantly by tremors, this work of art brings out into the open these erotic practices so strange to us, which are put in perspective in a historical and mythological context. How does one decipher the different facets of eroticism in Japan ? L’imaginaire érotique au Japon – fruit of ten years of reporting in Japan – is divided into 11 chapters each dealing with a specific point of Japanese eroticism : the obsession with knickers, a fascination for masks, a taste for women-dolls, the fear of the end of the world, the national feeling about castration, etc. THE DICTIONARY OF LOVE AND PLEASURE IN JAPAN Drugstore Format: 19 x 24,6 cm / One shot / 328 pages (This is not a comic book) In Japan, every erotic practice – however pointed it may be – has its name, as in martial arts. Geishas gave themselves a reputation by making new ways of serving drinks fashionable. Warriors perfected sword techniques to which they gave original names. In contemporary Japan, not a month passes without video film directors creating new words to describe new ways of loving. In Japan, desire crystallises on specific objects, whose charm revives an often very ancient poem. A particular logic rules the games of love and chance in this country obsessed by emotion. Using about 300 key words and a multitude of reproductions of works of art, the objective of this work is to decipher the behaviour of the Japanese, and especially to define Japanese thought and its erotic culture... a culture which goes far beyond the framework of sexuality.

LE VOYAGE AVEC BILL (JOURNEY WITH BILL) MATTHIAS SCHULTHEISS Glénat One shot / 256 pages (To be published in 2010) This is a dreamlike Road Movie made off esoteric or even paranormal events. The story is built on flashbacks and goes back and forth between dream and real life. Luke and his daughter Tweety who drive on America’s roads with no known goal; waiting for an encounter which will change their lives. It is their encounter with Bill, a cripple in a wheel chair which will settle their journey and destiny. The story will then be organized around Bill’s (metaphorical ?) quest: looking for a magician able to have his legs - lost during the war - grow back. Bill’s quest then becomes Luke’s and Tweety’s. They both, in their own way, build up bonds with Bill. The story is constructed around this quest : encounters, locations and events that arise are interpreted by Bill as “magical” clues indicating which way to go. The destiny of the characters they meet finds an end at the very moment when Bill seems to have reached his goal. DADDY SCENARIO AND DESIGN: MATTHIAS SCHULTHEISS Out of Collection / Hardback 72 pages col. / Format: 20 x 26,5 cm The son of God returns to Earth but this time it’s not to turn the other cheek This tale takes place in a time where terrible wars, barbarian acts and catastrophes are the lot of man in the 3rd millennium. God has asked his son to reveal himself once more to the people to bring them back into his fold. But Jesus does not want to be sacrificed again – he senses his father is duping him. God has also been struck blind. Disguised as someone or something straight from hell, Jesus wanders amongst the people, a pauper amongst the poor. He begs for drugs which are the only thing that can dull his anguish at God’s indifference to the children’s cries. This album could be very disturbing as Mathias Schultheiss questions the bible as well as the intentions of man with black humour, a direct style and bold colours.

Readers of « Ferraille » already know Dickie, the moustachioed anti-hero who wanders through history in his big clogs with his Playmobil features. After his adventures as the made-up son of Hitler, Glénat introduces a new set of stories where Dickie trawls through some of cinema’s greatest classics such as Jaws, Star Wars and Frankenstein to prove to us his sense of the absurd. For our pleasure Pieter de Poortere is the bard of irreverence and bad taste as he has a dig at movie scenes etched in the collective memory.

An adaptation in colour of Edgar Allan Poe’s great classic, full of mysteries. Nothing differentiates this scarab from others – except that he carries a death’s-head on his back ! And they say that this little insect could well have a connection with a certain Jean Laffitte, a dreadful French pirate whose treasure has never been found... This astonishing adventure was lived by old William, in the company of his friend the famous writer Edgar Allan Poe, who made from it one of the most mysterious tales ever. A tale which, more than a century and a half after it appeared, still hasn’t the shadow of a wrinkle...
