Here is a (“belgian”) comic for SF / Fantasy / Video Games / … and humour fans

Cover of the second volume

One joke:

Nina is a young girl who has difficulties with everyday life, but it is necessary to add that circumstances do not help: overactive imagination, loves the topics cited above, has an alien (like… not from Earth) in her class, can not decide what she wants to do for a job, … There are many references to movies, books and others, and it is worthwile to buy them. Two volumes are available: le trio de l’Apocalypse and La tête dans les étoiles.

Here is the result on this blog, anyhow…

It begins with this story I already recomended to Kosmos since it is Tales from the band camp , about a Band and all its adventures and athmosphere: http://www.talesfrombandcamp.com/

Then, “The Devil’s Panties” offers life strips, “Famous last words”, and so on… in a students – games – evenings ambiance, very sympathetic: http://devilspanties.keenspot.com/.

Then Geebas on Parade who tells stories about a girl LARP gamer… yes, Live action Roleplaying game… http://geebasonparade.keenspot.com/

The Noob is for all MMORpgs players, from WoW to Guild wars, including Dark Age of Kamelot http://www.thenoobcomic.com/

Sunday at 10 is also game oriented, but more rpg or P&P rpgs. Did you ever ask yourself about what the female hero of your rpg was doing during her holiday ? This is the opportunity to discover that: http://sundayat10.binary-underground.com/

You all know a rent-a-DVD shop with the guy mad of fantastic movies, the girl who looks like the only normal person there, the little genius taking care of video games, and so on…well, Please Rewind, that is so ! http://www.pleaserewind.com/

That is all for today, good reading…

Gunslinger Girl
by Yu Aida [ed. Asuka] (Vol. 1 + DVD, vol. 2)
A story with an uncluttered drawing I like very much, but the story itself is very hard: children recruited by a governemental organisation gouvernementale when their body is ill / paralised, and to whom new bodies are given (cyborg) if they accept to work as killers for the governement. Excellent Polar / fantastic manga.

Ceux qui ont des ailes
by Natsuki Takaya [ed. Delcourt] (Vol. 1)
It is the autor of Fruits Basket who offers here a fantastic / futuristic manga, set during the 22th century on a planet devasted by wars, where Kotobuki (a female thief) and Raomon (a military guy) live a stange love / hate relationship amongst characters as bizare as themselves.

Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle
by Clamp [ed. Pika] (Vol. 1-8)
The serie from Clamp is at its 8th volume, and still as many mix, characters from other series, and so on.

Au fait, sur le site officiel, il y même un compte à rebours .

• Gashapon Shop (http://www.gashaponshop.net), A gashapon is a cent capsule toy you find in distributors for a few francs, when turning the handle. In Europe, you will get “sticky hands”, miniatures of Smurfs, Pokémons, …. This webcomic is about Rainee, who manages a shop specialised in mangas, games, and especially Gashapon.
• The Seraph Inn (http://www.seraph-inn.com/), Very beautiful (graphically) webcomic with elves, beastmen, humans, …. a “must be seen” for the design.
• Adventurers comics (http://www.adventurers-comic.com/), while the first drawings are somehow… awfull, it pays to go on for the story (rpgs parody). And, if you read RPG world, there was a “cross over”
• School Daze (http://schooldaze.keenspace.com/), School is a very dangerous place. Run for your life !!
• User Friendly (http://www.userfriendly.org/static/), you think the technical helpline of your web provider is a strange place? You are right, you only need to read this webcomic to be sure of that.

Les dessins ne sont pas du grand art, je préviens… mais c’est assez marrant.

Et si Mido l’a déjà posté, sorry… ^^

Last Exile: A serie a bit futuristic. It is war in the clouds, with big vessels fighting, while on ground level, pilotes compete in races with smaller vessels, and who also do some missions of deliveries, some dangerous. I really like it, and the music is beautifull,

Clamp School Detectives: First, it is Clamp, so if you dislike it, go see somewhere else. Second, it is humour, which means you need to like jokes to like the serie. And last, it is very… Kawaï. It is the anime version of the three volumes of manga of the same name. Personnally, I really appreciate it, it is good for the mood.

http://www.egscomics.com, El Goonish Shive
What to say… err… a story a bit complicated with people who can change shape / sexe (that is usually an error) / type… and it is funny, at least.

http://sluggy.com, Sluggy Freelance
Err. Between Aliens, Rabbits (dangerous ones) and humans, life together is far from simple

http://www.countyoursheep.com/, Count Your Sheep (Thanks Leen )
You thought that counting sheeps to sleep was without danger ? Wrong. A sheep can be very very dangerous, even more if he his imaginary ^_^

http://www.dominic-deegan.com/: The full title is “Dominic Deegan: Oracle for hire”. Very funny, the main character is… a seer. Logical. And as each good seer, he can see the future WARNING: It is full of silly puns and word plays like the one I use to do (*boyt*)… so do not come to complain that you can not stop laughing…

http://www.scarygoround.com: Rachel has to take care of the University newspaper because of a command of her dean, in order to “replace” the lessons she did not attend to and the papers she did not write. She will therefore go to the office where the publication ceased ten years ago, and discovers a skeletton in the closet… in the real sense of the words.

http://www.schlockmercenary.com/: Schlock is a … the… errr…. a stack ? a thing ? And a mercenary. And he was hired by a human group. But between his swiftiness* to use his laser gun, his abbility to blunder and to stay with questionable company, there are risks for him, and especially for people who have to do with him
* (all right, that word does not exist…)

C’est donc le 9e tome de la série, toujours sous formes de gags d’une (voir deux) pages, et y’a toujours autant de jeux de mots laids Y’a aussi pas mal de petites vérités qu’on a entendu de nos parents, d’analyse assez fines et amusantes de certains comportements ^^;

Dans la bédé humoristique “pure”, y’en a peu que j’apprécie vraiment:
- Clarke et Midam (Pendant les travaux, l’exposition continue…)
- Larcenet & Thiriet (la Vie est courte)
- et donc Curd Ridel…

Shin Shunkaden [Clamp]: Un one-shot (un seul volume) basé sur la litérature coréeenne. Du bon Clamp comme on aime. Un beau mec ténébreux, de belles jeunes filles, … voui, bon, bref. Une histoire sympa, dommage que ça s’arrête aussi vite…

Marie & Elie 2: Ben c’est franchement trop sympa, ça fait jdr médiéval fantastique, un peu (normal vu que c’est tiré d’une sorte de rpg sorti sur la PS…), et y’a des bons gags (j’adore particulièrement la tronche de la prêtresse qui exorcise en quelque sort un démon… et la tête du loulou-démon ^^; )

XxxHolic 4: ben la suite… c’est pas évident, parce qu’en pratique, il faudrait avoir en même temps à l’esprit Tsubasa, Sakura, Lawful Drug, …. mais bon, j’aime bien. Chacun ses goûts, et c’est sûr, c’est du pur Shoujo.

Hikaru no Go 16: Ghhyyyaaaaaa, mais c’est terrible, a quand le suivant ?? Ce pauvre Hikaru qui s’interdit de jouer… argh. JE VEUX LA SUITE. Bon, a part ça, il y a aussi des vraies infos sur les différences entre Go chinois et japonais, etc.

Marie & Elie (1): Série sympatique à souhait Deux alchimistes qui décident de monter leur atelier, mais l’une était… la pire catastrophe de sa classe… et l’autre l’élève modèle. Vont-elles réussire à travailler ensemble ? Et les lutins, que veulent-ils aux deux alchimistes ?

Kindaichi (17): Toujours aussi complexe, mais toujours aussi intéressante, cette série policier très dure me laisse toujours en attente du volume suivant.

Naruto (17): J’aime bien la série, style ninjas, mystères et compagnie…, mais je m’inquiète de la suite des “évènements”, espérons que cela ne tourne pas trop au Dragonball-like !

.hack, la légende du bracelet de cristal (3, dernier volume): C’est toujours aussi kawaï, et j’aime bien la vision des http://www.loutan.net/blog/?p=393 En fait, ça pourrait aussi s’appeller ils ont fumé quoi à la tour de contrôle ? :mouais:
