Wow. oO
I remember writing about Douwe Dabbert, Esther Verkest, and… some other major Dutch characters & cartoonists, but…

I’m getting old, my memory is fading, and… haha, so this is nice!

Aimée de Jongh!
Okay yeah, let’s see about her works across upcoming posts…

Wah? Et voyez-vous notre barre latérale?

Ce sont des “bande dessinée!” (“BD”)

(sorry, sorry, my bad. I get worked up sometimes, I’m sorry)

Side question-- does Rotterdam have a BD museum of sorts?

like, you know…

Merci beaucoup!
So then, I will start with Le retour!

Ooh, ooh, did I also hear you say that you’d be willing to make a post on our sub about de Jongh? That would be so amazing, if you could. T_T

Gosh, there’s so many great female cartoonists in the genre, and altho I’ve done my best to feature them myself, I still feel like I’m letting them down, on the whole. Plus of course, so many of the lesser-known talents in BD.

(argh, my version of “heaven” is being able to finally touch on every BD creator, ever, until I have to go, one day)

Unbelievable.
It’s sort of the anti-Clinton, full of wonkish facts of the time, but like the coming admin, directed towards blame and hate.

Which too-often snags the common person in to a vague basket of ‘yeah, we gotta get those guys!’ sentiment.

Oh, wow, thank you!
Will edit that in, above…

Thanks; good advice and I appreciate it. <3

Eh, you know what?
I don’t think you’re quite as horrible a goblin as some say you are! ^^

Awesome; glad to hear it! :D

And dammit…
I don’t think I’ve read de Jongh yet. Could you pick one these for me, please?

My late cat Tove (Astrid´s sister) was named after Jansson.

Waitasecond, waitasecond… but Astrid is only 5-6yo, right?

Dare I ask what happened to to her sister Tove…?

Haha, it won’t of course,
but it’s a nice gesture. :D

Thanks for the honest reply!

Thanks for the reply, matey.
So, assuming I’m getting all that correctly, then you seem like you’re prone to spinning-up some dark fun which suits *you*, but not necessarily the object of the joke, necessarily.

TBH, I’ve struggled with that myself, many-a-time. Argh…

I’ve made a joke about someone killing themselves on both lemmy and Reddit.

How was that funny, if I may ask?

And there’s even a sequel movie with professional actors doing the voices(!)

Pretty cool how a homemade thing like this can get picked up by investors and such…

IIRC, he also played Orson Welles in Ed Wood.

Anyway, wow… a film about RE Howard?!

Felt like an ancient Greek myth.

Interesting… I hadn’t thought about them that way, but I think that suits the stories well, in which it doesn’t really matter who the army represents, nor who the generals are.

If you don’t keep up-to-date with what’s going on, and don’t exercise your vote, then everything around you is pretty much an ‘Illuminati scam.’

Welcome to the easiest way to scam people. XD

Oh, and Exhibit B, sometime:

Our family drove up to MontReal when I was around 8yo, and while there, our family-friend gave me some funny picture-albums, “Ma Dalton” and “Asterix au Egypt”…
