Look how a decent judicial system works… Dargaud sued Delcourt in France for a comic biography of EP Jacobs, author of Dargaud-published Blake & Mortimer series, that apparently had a cover which was "too close" to the Blake & Mortimer covers.
The cover in question on the left and a standard Blake & Mortimer on the right.
In a matter of days, the court judged against Dargaud and the book will go on sale as planned.
