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

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

Okay, here's my recent discovery-- Vendredi sur Mer, i.e. Charline Mignot from Romandy, Schweiz: [NSFW] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OhqUMFj51X0

And another one, crushing the down-low chill:

EDIT: honestly, I reacted poorly to the initial downvotes, and I apologise for that. I guess a good chunk of people were turned off by Mignot's first video. Welp, it happens, altho assuming this is primarily a Euro-based audience, I find that a bit weird.

Which perhaps suggests that I'm wrong, and that this is more of an American Christian audience than I'd suspected... or something like that?

Damn, thank you so much, professeur Nacktmull!
TBH, I've never really delved in to roots reggae, so this is a nice little opportunity for me to learn about something I already loved.

Satta Massa Gana is Amharic (an Ethiopian-Semitic language)

Just free-associating here, but I recall the early Christian bible being written in... Aramaic? Could "Amharic" be an offshoot of sorts?

Anyway, I'll get listening to the Satta Massa Gana und Heart of the Congos albums, tout de suite! <3

Interesting question! I never thought about it, so I gave it a quick check and it turns out you are right. Both languages not only belong to the Afroasiatic language family but also to it´s branch of the Semitic languages. The branch is divided into sub groups, with Aramaic belonging to the Central Semitic and Amharic belonging to the South Semitic sub groups, which are both part of the Western major sub group, as far as I understand it.

Anyway, I’ll get listening to the Satta Massa Gana und Heart of the Congos albums, tout de suite! <3

Enjoy, those albums are the Crème de la Crème!
