Gilbert Simon and his winning cover : Pictue from LorientLeJour
Gilbert Simon won the contest for the cover drawing of the latest Asterix and Obelix comic entitled “Asterix and the Picts” (Category Over 25 years old). The comic was out last week and will be available in 15 countries and 23 languages. Simon will receive a special edition comic with his cover drawing.
I am going to pass by Librairie Antoine today and see if they have it. If anyone knows Gilbert Simon, I would love to ask him if we could have the special edition comic with his cover drawing.
The winning cover
Najib, be careful:
there are two covers. Gilbert Simon won for the international edition cover (including a french international edition). however, the local french edition has a different cover not drawn by Simon.
Librairie Antoine are buying their books from Amazon France which is selling the french local edition and not the international one.
Unless Antoine has decided to bring the international edition.
Just a warning to avoid any deception.
Thanks for the tip Razor.
Hi Najib, Gilbert is present at Antoine’s stand every day at the salon du livre signing a poster of his cover. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=743128652368461&set=pb.110193455661987.-2207520000.1383652845.&type=3&theater
