Re: Movieblob
Yup, it's French. Easy to think it would be Belgian, same language and it being where the European comic scene mostly was.
What about Tintin? You had those in the states? That's the other comic series my father has all issues of.

Re: Movieblob
We had Tintin. It's pretty much dead here. They did an animated movie a few years ago that bombed.

They've tried to bring it over here a couple of times, but it never caught on. 99% of Americans have never heard of it.

Re: Movieblob
Haven't read it myself but you know it has promise because it was attacked for being "pro imperialistic" as well as "anti-soviet".
It's a trap!

Most of these Euro comics never caught on in the States. Only foreign comics that have really captured the US market is the Japanese manga

Tintin has a strong but small fan base here, I remember enjoying the animated movie alright.
I’m getting too old for this shitposting.

Re: Movieblob
I remember that shit, we had some comic books with them and I have absolutely no idea where it came from, I think it was from my aunt in Netherlands for some reason, because it was in language we couldn't understand, but even the way it was drawn was really lame. Asterix has great writing (the old classic ones), but it's also really well drawn, so it's all around awesome package, but I remember those rip-offs just looking lazy.
Blessed are the shitposters, for they will be called children of the Sperg.

Re: Movieblob
I triple that. The jokes. The pacing. The catchy music. Or little things like Brutus playing with his knive.
Oh, that one.We had most books when I grew up, I think the only story I didn't really like / understand was something like "Asterix vs Feminism" and I can't even remember how it ended, but I do think that in the end they all got along again which would definitely be a more positive message than today's "one side has to be put down to elevate the other".
So some feminist from the progressive city tries to brainwash the village wenches. They first think she's crazy, but eventually start insisting to wearing pants.
The feminist also turns out to be a massive hypocrite as she kisses Asterix without his consent, which triggers a panic attack that causes him to put her in her place with a mighty pimp slap.
Meanwhile, the Romans' newest keikaku involes an all-female legion, hoping that the Gaulish gentlemen won't beat them up like they do with every legion. Unfortunately they didn't factor in the village bard (there's a frequent running gag of his singing being so bad that it triggers a downpour) and the lady legionnaires falling for the latest in Gaulish fashion.
I personally prefered the story where the Romans hire a guy with the super power of triggering the fuck out of everyone. He is my hero.
They where afraid of the quality comics from the Old World.Guest wrote: ↑Sun Apr 04, 2021 3:50 pmMost of these Euro comics never caught on in the States. Only foreign comics that have really captured the US market is the Japanese manga
