“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"

Please DO: 1) follow good 'netiquette' and 2) the four simple rules of lemm.ee (this instance) when posting and commenting. As for extracts, they're fine, but don't link to pirated downloads. Moderation will be based on readers' willingness to follow the above guidelines.

The designated language here is English, with a traditional bias towards French, followed by other Euro languages.

When posting foreign-language content, please DO include helpful context for English-speakers.

This is so clever and impressive to me, even if it's a bit scholarly in form, I suppose. It's from the opening pages of In the Cormorants' Wake, T2 from Cape Horn. The point is that you can completely miss T1, yet still get everything you need to make the backstory work in T2.

It's just brill, at least for the likes of me, anyway.

Btw, I added some colors to help make the notes clearer, themed to Roy G. Biv, a tremendous son-of-a-gun if there ever was one. :P
