Screech my beloved, it is for next year!


I’ve really not enjoyed the last Astérix, having grown up with the Goscinny ones. To be honest, I haven’t read this one, but I’m planning to. Not expecting much to be honest, but thanks for the review nonetheless !
Goscinny of course had master class puns, and I mean in french it’s just perfection. But maybe it’s further than that. He had great timing and tempo in storytelling, that the newer albums clearly have lost. They try nowadays to take the spirit of making jokes using modern situations, which can work but this mostly falls flat imo. It’s like writing satire and being witty isn’t as easy as it sounds !


Interesting they still have the old logo from banania. Was cleansed by the great logo purge of the 2010s. Understandable though. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banania
Edit : controversy in France was 2006-2010





These magazines have always been a super important part of the bande dessinée landscape. When I was a kid I would read modern versions of the descendants of the journals like Le journal de Tintin.
My take was always that writers could try stuff out and make solidify content for their albums they would later publish. At the end of the day, all the extra one pagers or adventures were always refreshing. When you have read all of Tintin 46 times over, anything more will do!
I was playing both a bard and a paladin my first campaign! Literal banger!

This is on my phone hope the text is readable.


Due to the absence of gear treadmill… It makes it super easy to get back into. Unless I misunderstood your comment. But I just came back after no following SotO and VoE and I am pumped! Playing the whole story since the very start :)
Oh and with such easy access to legendary gear the gear treadmill is even flatter. Come to us, we welcome you!
Cause they have nazi gold in their banks. Your data is belong to them. Don’t be confused!


Classic whataboutism. We’re not talking about the former colonies here nor asylum seekers. And you are completely out of it. You’re not seeing that colonialism and asylum seekers aren’t the point as they’re persecuted outside their country for the latter or being persecuted by an outside force for the former. In the authoritarian BRICS regimes it’s internal persecution towards their own people. It’s not about skin color.
Also yes Brazil and SA are muchhhhh worse than Canada. Have you been? Clearly not. Cause going in a supermarket in Rio with heavily armed guards on alert cause you’re white which means a robbery could take place any moment targeting you or in SA having to take an uber down the street to not get assaulted and robbed? Yeah.


Same here but I found the white iris to be actually ok. Lots of jokes on French modern society.



Then I hope you read XIII which is also by Van Hamme. I find it superior to LW and man what a story. Very story dense and story rich. I’ve read it multiple times and what a ride each time.
