• Who said comics were for kids ?

    Written by anglaischagall in Accueil on 28 June 2013 à 20:16

    Comics have a special place in French culture, even though they have to face Japanese competition with Mangas. But it is undeniable that French people read comics from childhood to old age. Wasn't Tintin Magazine's slogan "for young people from 7 to 77 years old" ? Yes, many comics come from Belgium,

    but the French have created comics that can be humorous or serious.

    Some of them are just works of art. Meanwhile what comics are the British reading ? I have found blogs where you will have an answer :

    Let's hope it'll give you some ideas to be busy during your summer holidays.

    Wow! awesome websites! I've just checked them out. Thanks for the link.  Talking about comics, the French aren't bad either. And we have our own comics designer studio in Rheims, Atelier 510 TTC, created by Philippe Buchet & Jean-David Morvan, the inventors of the Sci-fi series Sillage. I love the series and I recommend it to any comics lover.

    Thanks for the information. The creator of the second best-known comic duck Canardo used to live in Reims too. I wonder if he still does.
