“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"

Snowpiercer was originally a set of three graphic novels done by Casterman in French and Titan in English.

1: The Escape
2: The Explorers
3: Terminus

Then they launched a prequel series which was also supposed to run 3 volumes:

1: Extinction
2: Apocalypse
3: Annihilation

That 3rd book was supposed to be out in 2021? I guess it was Covid-Delayed?

It came out October 10, 2023 in France, but for some reason is impossible to buy. It's out of stock everywhere.

They released that new Wonka movie with Timothy Chalamader just a couple weeks ago

No idea, @Nacktmull@lemm.ee.

I do feel like Snowpiercer 1 (the comic) is such a good, but weirdly-executed premise IMO. I.e., such a strange way to kick things off. oO

At the same time, I believe the later 2-3-4 editions are in French, and much-better written. You know-- these things happen, sometimes!

That said, the Hollywood movies sounds amazingly good... something I never would have expected in the world from that source! :O
