Comment Time to read European "comics" then (Score 1) 397
So, people get bored of US comics because they've had enough of super heroes saving the world, and they get bored of manga because they've had enough of characters that all have the exact same gigantic eyes and pointy chin.
Maybe it's time to give European comics a try, and especially Belgian and French ones. Now, there's a wealth of diversity in drawing styles (you can tell the name of the author by looking at the drawings, unlike mangas) and topics (history, sci-fi, western, adventures, what not, and maybe even super heroes, if you really can't do without).
"Bande Dessinée", at least in the French speaking parts of Europe, is no longer reserved to pre-teen kids and mentally impaired people. It's an Art of a (not so) new kind, no less noble than novell writing or film making.
