Tintin and Asterix

[khaz]

i don't know about you lot but i personally find these two to be two of the finest pieces of writing i have ever had the pleasure of reading. and no other comic/book/graphic novel has made me laugh out as much as these two have with their puns, similies, metaphors, hadockisms, obelixsms, painstaking research, attention to detail and so on....:D


fine example of haddock's curses..just reading them remind me that i've got to start collecting these two again..i've lost so many of these books it's unbelievable.!!!

Roast Boar anyone???

D'you know I loved Asterix a few years ago and have never thought about getting some more to read. Oh yeah I love it by the way. :) Good going Khaz!

TinTin was cool when I was youger but I always went with Asterix and Co.

:monkee:

yeah but i loved both of them equally. tintin had a more moody atmosphere and even when i read them now i get such a buzz out of reading them...the same with asterix, a much happier atmosphere but the writing and attention to detail are absolutely top-notch. :)
