A Special Edition of the The Staff of Plutarch and Others

Yves Schirlif appears to be a gift that keeps on giving, as he as revealed new images through his Twitter account that may be of interest to fans of the B&M franchise, the first of which being the cover for a luxury edition of The Staff of Plutarch, followed by two other pictures of this edition. Other pictures show a cover for The Mega Wave, a book heavily featured on The Yellow "M", a Juillard sketch showing himself along with our heroes, and, lastly, a Yellow "M"-themed sketch by René Follet.

Yves Schirlif, an editor at Dargaud, has published some pictures of this year's upcoming B&M publications, which you can see below. Those include some cover studies and a sketch from Juillard 329 Dessins.

Les Amis des Jacobs Publications in Q3 2015

The association Les Amis des Jacobs, an association dedicated to the art of Edgar P. Jacobs, will publish this year the seventeenth number of the eponymous magazine, and the second volume of Les Contes et Illustrations de Edgar Jacobs. 

The former will include a cover featuring a beautiful sketch from The Time Trap, a study of the journeys made in The Yellow "M" by Eric Simon, an interview with François Riviére, Jacov's secrets and sources, and a lot more sure to delight any fan of the Belgian master,

The second volume of Les Contes will continue the publication of several illustrations made by Jacobs early in his carrer.

Although there will be no new Blake & Mortimer albums this year, Dargaud has already confirmed that two books based on the franchise will be published this year: Juillard 329 Dessins (Juillard 329 Drawings), a sketchbook similar to Jacobs 329 Dessins, and a single volume reedition of Professor Sato's Three Formulae, with original storyboards included, are coming out this christmas.

It has also become obvious that B&M #24, which comes out in 2016, will be a Sente & Juillard, the latter being already working on the album.
