Buck Danny, Jerry Tumbler and Sonny Tuckson have a cameo in the latest Angel Wings album "Black Widow". On page 37 we see them at a concert of the USO-artist Jinx Falkenburg. The Burma Banshees invited also the squadrons from their region, including the Flying Tigers (it's 1944, Buck Danny album 3 -6). In front, close to the man with the 40s camera, we see Jerry, Buck and Sonny. Presumably behind Buck: Col. Ted Morton en next to Sonny: Slim Holden:

A delay with Buck Danny Classic del 3 "Ghosts of the Rising Sun"; former date Febr./March 2016, new date: April 15, 2016: http://tinyurl.com/jfbbo4h

A delay, presumably with a commercial intention:
also on April 15, 2016 the release of Tanguy & Laverdure Classic del 1: http://tinyurl.com/zooyry6 (album title not 100% correct: correct is: ”The Airplane that kills its Pilots”)

It seems that publisher Zéphyr is selling both Classic albums in one box/sleeve on the same day, look at this advert also: http://tinyurl.com/hjatsyt

Buck Danny Classic volume 3, black&white: http://tinyurl.com/jdcn2ze
And Tanguy & Laverdure Classic volume 1, black&white: http://tinyurl.com/j66vkh2

Great developpements, but we have to wait at least 4 months.

Spy miss Lee has a comeback in the spin-off Buck Danny Classic volume 3 ("Ghosts of the Rising Sun"), to be released in April:
Bild

Miss Lee is a member of the secret japanese Black Dragon Society, see Buck Danny volume 3 - 6. This story is between volume 6 and 7, so just after WW-II. On page 1 and 2 we see the end of WW-II, and on page 3 and 4 Buck, Jerry and Sonny are returning in a Dakota DC-3 from Kunming in China to Los Angeles; Sonny however has troubles with turbulences above Japan. So, actually the story starts on page 5 where miss Lee is freed from her imprissonment in China: Bild

Miss Lee:

Bild ... Bild

Left: by Vic Hubinon (early 50s), right: miss Lee by J.-M. Arroyo (2015)

The female spy miss Lee had a supporting, though significant role in 3 Buck Danny albums so far. Her brief appearances:
- Volume 3, pages J.128B, J.139A, J.141A, J154A and J.157A
- Volume 4, pages J.168B, J.190A, J.192, J.197, J.199 - J.202, J. 203A and J.222B
- Volume 5: none
- Volume 6:, pages J. 203, J.295B, J.296A and J.298A. According to page J.320A, she ought to be rounded up and arrested.

Miss Lee was an intermediary between the spy on the field Mo Choung-Young and the secret Japanese Black Dragon Society during WW-II in
Indo-China. The telephone was her most important "tool".

Below: miss Lee's first apperance in Buck Danny volume 3, page J.128B. She has to forward a secret message from Mo Choung-Young to the
staff of the Black Dragon Society. These messages always meant a lot of troubles for the Flying Tigers. So her role was significant.

Bild

In the spin-off series "Buck Danny Classic" with volumes 3 and 4 (dyptich), miss Lee has been freed from prison on a spectecular way (see my
latest post) and her contibution to this story will be significant again! With this mission her arrest in volume 6 (page J.320A) could be correct.
The spy Mo Choung-Young died in Buck Danny volume 6 (page J.319B) during an explosion.

Miss Lee was modelled by J.-M. Charlier after a Japanese female spy, see also: http://www.salimbeti.com/aviation/comics6.htm

"Texte de Charlier"? Where's the original script from?

But they've met before, right? At least in various cameos...

Very good question. The scenario is based on this roman by J.-M. Charlier (publisher Hachette - France, 1971):

Some impressions from this book:

More page impressions:

4. http://i66.tinypic.com/29czu9.jpg
5. http://i65.tinypic.com/rkahc2.jpg (cover art, many pixels)

You may find this book (186 pages, 12 x 17 cm., with drawings by Joseph Gillain aka Jijé) in the atelier of the drawer Matthieu Durand also (at the bottom of this recent photo): http://i64.tinypic.com/qzf04z.jpg

The scenarist Patrice Buendia transformed Charlier's story to a comic dyptich. The 2nd album will have the title of the above book/roman: "L'avion qui tuait ses pilotes/ The aircraft that kills it's pilots".
Charlier took for this book (roman) parts from his scenario's from Dan Cooper ("Duel dans le ciel"), Buck Danny ("Prototype FX-13") and T & L ("Mission Speciale").
You may understand that, since it's known that the dyptich T & L Classic #1 and #2 is adapted from Charliers book from 1971, the prices of this book are rising rapidly (and today hard to find). Visit for instance eBay.fr, search: "L'avion qui tuait ses pilotes".

Yes indeed. Even Laverdure reading Buck Danny volume #44:
Bild

*****************************************

There is also some bad news about the in 2013 startet spin-off series Buck Danny Classic. It looks like that the drawer Jean-Michel Arroyo will discontinue after volume 4.
It's rumoured that the co-operation with CEO A. Paringaux isn't very well and/or Arroyo used the Classic series as a springboard to better series/projects. There were some indications: since 2015 Arroyo removed his Buck Danny avatar at his LinkedIn account, and on the Internet photo's of the painter and musician Arroyo; so no links with Buck Danny anymore.
Arroyo will with the famous French scenarist Pierre Christin draw a thriller story (a one shot or new series?), situated in Paris from the 50s. The album will be released by publisher Dupuis - Brussels in autumn 2017. Drawing a Buck Danny story lasts almost a year, so a break in this series when Arroyo continues with a thriller story. At the moment Arroyo is finishing Buck Danny Classic volume #4 ("L'Isle du diable/ Devil's Island", part 2 of a dyptich), to be released early 2017. Propably Paringaux has to find a new drawer.
