“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.

I don't think I'm making any great insight to state that these hit me a lot like lightbox and stained glass art, but with a level of extra detail I really enjoy, and tackling subjects I haven't seen too often in this format. Either way, the designs are just gorgeous IMO.


The Last Betrayal

Mike (of Smirap Designs), was born in Manchester, UK, but now lives in Athens, presumably returning to his ethnic/national roots. He's a freelance graphic designer who works in a bunch of different specialties, up for various challenges.

Personally, after finding and sharing plenty of continental stuff from England, Spain, Belgium, France, Italy, the Netherlands, a couple Nordic countries, Germany and Poland, I'm a bit relieved to finally share some nice work related to Greece. The Czech republic is next on my list, and eventually I'd like to post nice content from every Euro country I possibly can. Eastern Europe is still sadly under-represented here. :S

Well, cheers.
