“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"

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'll try to get to the main point, but wasn't that some... Shakespearean Henry Vth stuff right there?

Anywhere, here's a proper, full page:

Okay, I'm just trying for a quick-post for now, but I feel like Moreil & Pedrosa's "The Golden Age" is just... an astonishing BD accomplishment.

Least of all, there's Cyril Pedrosa's *wild* color schemes, which almost take the center-show. Seriously, I'd almost call such a new genre within BD...

But also the script-writer, Roxanne Modeil!
What an enormous, new talent. oO

Yeap yeap, there is MUCH more to say about this series and the creators, but... just wanted t give y'all a taste for now. (kinda busy, I am)
