Pierre Spengler on Buying Humanoides

imageI almost missed this short interview with Pierre Spengler on buying Humanoides Associes, I think almost exactly a year ago. It actually felt a bit too breezy on my first pass, but supplied more than few nuggets of information. Spengler describes the motivation to buy Humanoides as a combination of having access to potential film properties and being able to pick up a publishing house where the staff was mostly in place. He also denies rumors he's looking to re-sell, and expresses regret that he did not at one time pursue the purchase of DC Comics. He even speaks to the move by Enki Bilal from Humanoides to Casterman.
