“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 understand he did this piece as sort of a love-letter to videogames from his youth.

Ah, I still remember that feeling as a kid the first time I got all the medallions and pulled the master sword from the pedestal in A Link to the Past. Good times.

A Link To The Past had the most magical feel of any master sword, I think.

Ocarina of Time was great, but it felt... almost like a religious artifact, if that makes sense. Whereas LTTP was just this sword in this exquisitely beautiful little grove, deep within a magical forest... it had a feeling of a legend being born that no other game has ever quite touched since. At least, for me!
