NYCC ’15: Dark Horse gets Mœbius catalog — please don’t recolor it

5
Among comics reprints there are few holy grails left. We've finally got Miracleman (and no one cares) we're getting Master of Kung Fu, and now, perhaps the last great library. Via Dark Horse media partner Bleeding Cool comes word that DH has gained the rights to put out a "lavish series of hardcover volumes" reprinting "the library of Mœbius." Terse but cherce. One imagines it will be similar to the Milo Manara library being reprinted currently.

They have three new books including what sounds like an intriguing tale about two German police officers who join the Klan to make friends and meet girls, an anthology mixing comics and cooking and a book adapting a famous Polish poem about a train into a 60 foot long comic!
