Bye Bye Blondie

July 2006. Gabriel El Chawadi says goodbye to his family at the Paris airport as they leave for their summer vacation in southern Lebanon. But a conflict at the Israel-Lebanon border escalates into a full-blown aerial attack, and for the next few harrowing weeks, the family hides for cover with friends and relatives, watches helplessly as people and buildings are destroyed all around them, and hope against all hope that France will evacuate them to safety. Back in Paris, Gabriel watches the events unfold on television with growing horror and sends out desperate calls for help to anyone who will listen.

An epidemic of apocalyptic proportions has swept the globe, causing the dead to rise and feed on the living. In a matter of months, society has crumbled: There is no government, no grocery stores, no mail delivery, no cable TV. Rick Grimes finds himself one of the few survivors in this terrifying future. A couple months ago he was a small town cop who had never fired a shot and only ever saw one dead body. Separated from his family, he must now sort through all the death and confusion to try and find his wife and son. In a world ruled by the dead, we are forced to finally begin living.

Como cada verano, Mustafá lleva a su familia a su país natal, el Líbano. Las reuniones amistosas y el sol están a la orden del día. Pero estamos en 2006, en Tiro, en el sur del país, y las bombas lanzadas por Israel, en nombre de la lucha contra Hezbolá, pronto convierten esta fiesta en una pesadilla… 24 años antes, en una situación similar, Mustafá se exilió en Francia. ¿Qué hará esta vez, entre la impotencia y la culpa?

Moi, Nevermore, corbeau d'Iowa O' le terroriste irlandais, je te le dis : tu peux toujours te planquer dans un ranch... Les habits crottés n'y feront rien, TS Rowell ! L'empire de tes crimes prend fin ici-bas. Car ta fille est venue prendre ce qui lui revient. Amen !

A Miami, durante un congresso sulle terapie mediche in sessuologia, Blondie Sprint conosce il dottor Menguzzi, un medico che ha deciso di darsi alla letteratura. Dopo una cena a quattro tra Blondie, la dottoressa Welperg, Menguzzi e il dottor Owens, dove si disquisisce, tra l’altro, dell’ossessione dell’uomo per la figa, la serata prosegue nel superattico del dottor Menguzzi dove ci si abbandona ad un’orgia, monitorata dall’orgasmonetro, un apparecchio tecno-scientifico di Blondie che misura l’intensità del piacere del maschio.

Si chiama Blondie. È una spietata e affascinante fuorilegge e Don Chisciotte la scambia per la reincarnazione di Dulcinea del Toboso, la donna amata dal suo antenato. Lui e Cico l'aiutano a sottrarsi alla cattura da parte di uno sceriffo.
