Second edition since terror attack

Charlie Hebdo Staff Ponder Bittersweet New Success After Jihadi Terror Attack

By Angelique Chrisafis, Feb. 24, 2015, TheGuardian.com

A new issue of the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo hits newsstands on Wednesday, with a cover depicting the far-right leader Marine Le Pen, Nicolas Sarkozy, a bishop, a jihadi, a banker and a TV news crew as a rampaging pack of hounds.

The issue marks a return to business as usual for the magazine targeted in last month’s terror attacks in Paris.

In recent days, Charlie Hebdo staff have admitted struggling to come to terms with their new reality after the attack on 7 January which killed 12 people, including the editor, Charb, and some of France’s best-known cartoonists. The magazine is currently operating out of a temporary space in the offices of the daily newspaper Libération, with massive round-the-clock police protection. It is unable to move into a new Paris location until the officeshave been bullet-proofed and secured.
