“BD” refers to Franco-Belgian comics, but let's open things up to include ALL Euro comics, especially 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"

This Moebius tarot deck is by "QuirkyMagic," a pen-name for Englishman Clive Austin. The deck was evidently a handmade, one-off creation for a friend. The rest of the deck can be seen here.


Speaking of which, he also 'Kickstarted' a hand-crafted collection of cards called The Unremarkable Oracle. The idea I believe is similar to the way Runestones, The I Ching, and The Tarot work, i.e. they're all tools with a randomising quality to help one regain momentum in one's life, and perhaps some personal insights.

I find the cards and the concept intriguing, altho unfortunately his "QuirkyMagic.com" site now seems to be down, which is where the deck and a guidebook could once be had for £25. Bugger. Still, for anyone curious, it seems the cards (front and back) and booklet have been somewhat preserved across the Instagram link above, as well as at his general Pinterest site.

(wow, I sure do love to embed dem links, huh?)
