This comic is a little gem! In the world of occasions, we just rub the worst (the recent Lucky Luke), mean (some B & H), the good (the last Asterix) and exceptional for it. I discovered The Secret of the Swordfish around the age of 9 years in a disease whose children have the secret ... and also more than 40 later I could hardly imagine that Sente and Julliard succeed in creating a "prequel" of this quality! Intrigue top, purely jacobsien drawing atmosphere "so British", architecture, cars, everything is there. In addition, the two accomplices managed to perfect their nest opus before the first volume of the Espadon is the infamous Olrik, where does the "traitor" Hasso, who the landlady Mrs. Benson etc. This is almost perfect. I must issue one caveat about some purely military technical details: no ship of the RN will have a name starting with 'The' as "The Intrepid" (that is grammatically impossible with HMS possessive, especially as the Intrepid has never been an aircraft carrier), why ask Seafire 10 poor (high gloss had not before version 3) to go and defend a capital that has Sptfires, Tempests and other Mosquitoes in number and much faster and better armed, and finally explain how an aircraft carrier cruising in the Channel can send these Seafire London in no time and the next day being 800km south to send Fairey Barracuda flowing an enemy submarine after flight hour to 350km / h off Portugal !!! These are details, it is true, as the Cabinet of War is actually Cabinet War Rooms, but for writers who are so picky about their documentation and had, in fact, meet some "incongruities" in the work of the Secret jacobsien the Swordfish is a shame ... but it does not deprive you to enjoy this book as an old Porto, slow and small sips pleasurable.
