“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.

Hilda is an absolute corker of a British series, by Luke Pearson, set in a modern-mythic Scandinavia. I've previously touched on it here, but was recently (and pleasantly) reminded, just now.

Specifically, these pages come from book four, Hilda and the Black Hound.

"We're not invisible." (what a friggin' line)

From my POV (i.e. my perspective), it's dang-ol' rare to the point of vanishing that a series is magnificently simple & loverly on the surface, yet packed to the nines with excellent meaning and curiosity. Honestly, I'm not quite sure I've ever seen the like before across comics.

"Check it out if you can"
(that's my little whisper mode, hehe)
