“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.

What a ridiculous car the old Twingo was

So... anything like a Trabant?

My Hungarian uncle (by marriage) used to drily observe "Is not car, is Trabant."

When I was 13 yo in 1991 my school organized a school trip to East Berlin. I spent two weeks there, so I saw a lot of Trabant. I liked this car very much. The father of my correspondant used to say the same "It's not a car, it's a Trabant"

Thanks for bringing back those nice memories!

Oh man, and thank YOU for reminding me of "Mawril."

I'll try to explain later... properly!
