“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"

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: If you happen to make a mistake upon the above, then please don't worry about it. We'll likely just laugh it off and let you know. OTOH, obvious bad-faith and hostile efforts will not be tolerated here.

Hey folks-- I'm not feeling too well these days, so I wanted to release some of my notes & scans, just in case.

In this case, there was a fully-constructed page from Tintin and the Picaros, but it got cut for space considerations, as sometimes happens. What's particularly amazing in this case is that George Remi himself (Hergé), took the interviewer step-by-step through the process, in a commentary / supplementary book "Musée."

So I've been working on notes & translations from that book, and it's indeed pretty fascinating, but life is life. Let me just give you the full scans, if you're interested:
