New Comic Book: La BD de L'Avent, Le Lombard Publishing
- taneliv 2y agoSince I was unsure if I remembered it correctly and had to check it up: BD stands for bande dessinée[1], that is, a comic book. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bande_dessin%C3%A9e https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bande_dessin%C3%A9e
- clauderoux 2y agoActually, Bande Dessinée means: Comic Strip
- bestouff 2y agoSure it does, initially. But nowadays it means comic book.
- a-french-anon 2y agoNot really, it means both. A simple 4 square strip in a newspaper is also called bande dessinée.
- taneliv 2y agoIsn't the literal meaning "drawn strip"?
- nickserv 2y agoNice. It's always a pleasure to see the print versions of Pepper&Carrot at the local bookseller, knowing that it's mainly done in Krita, and other OSS. And of course the stories are cute! Will pick up a copy when available in my area.
- drivingmenuts 2y ago> All the stories in this book are in French, for the French-speaking market OK, so why is the ad in English, then?
- Timwi 2y agoOnly half of it is an ad. The rest is more a blog post about the process involving FLOSS publishing software.
- PoignardAzur 2y agoThe article mentions open-sourcing it and opening it to translations. You can see on the screenshots that the speech bubbles are left blank, so they can be filled with translated text. (Also, holy crap this idea is amazing. I'm buying two as soon as I close this tab.)
- SoullessSilent 2y agoSingle use book?
- lancesells 2y agoI don't know anything about this comic, but word balloons going over part of a face is not a good sign for a quality book.
- tokinonagare 2y agoWell that's indeed bad, but looking at that illustrator portfolio, his skill is undeniable.
