“BD” refers to Franco-Belgian comics, but let's open things up to include ALL Euro comics and GN's. Euro-style artistry from around the world is also welcome. ^^

* BD = "Bandes dessinées"
* BDT = Bedetheque
* GN = graphic novel
* LBK = Lambiek
* LC = "Ligne claire"

I had almost forgotten about this gem, after reading it decades ago as a kid. In hindsight, Chninkel had a strong impact on my developing love for comics, quite comparable to The Incal and AKIRA. While the drawings are not as perfect as the work of the grandmasters Moebius and Otomo, the narrative of Chninkel hits even harder imo. Twelve year old me was especially triggered by the oppression and injustice of the scenario and I still remember being stunned by the hard struggle the little protagonist has to endure. NEVER GIVE UP LITTLE CHNINKEL!
