“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"

From the side bar:

But let's be honest: I can't write a mini-article every single day, and frankly got discouraged when so few seemed to appreciate the prior day's Astérix post, which I thought was a perfectly fun BD post.

As for my little articles in general, they seem to be generally enjoyed, but usually with polite, muted applause. What seems to get a typically much higher number of upvotes is the 'drive-by' stuff, in which someone cruising a feed can simply say 'whoa, cool image' and upvote, without needing to read a post, think about it, and/or comment.

So in a way, this was my little "okay, lads & lassies, if that's what you want... 🙄" moment, haha.

In any case, thank you for taking the time to comment on this one.

QUESTION: can mobile or desktop users not see the sidebar here?

BONUS: there's a rather naughty aspect to this piece that... well!

On mobile, it depends on which app you’re using.

This is exquisite! Thanks for sharing.

I feel like it kinda fits! Definitely makes me think of something euro like Belleville Rendezvous
