Soz to reply to my own thread and that, but are the Asterix and Tintin books 'graphic novels'?

Totally, it's all a massive allegory.

It was a rhetorical question.
Of course they are, it's like that old joke about the difference between erotica and pornography being the social class of the person reading/ viewing it.

Larpy, leather trenchcoat, Iron Maiden devotee, 'graph nov' fans down the 'Workshop would never admit it, but yeah, Tintin and Asterix are deffo in the same boat.

I used to love those when I was a kid.

See now, personally, I'm all for calling a comic a fucking comic.
Regardless of whether it's 'Maus' or The Beano.

I agree AB.
Comics is comics. I can just about stomach the term 'comic book', but novels they aren't. They can't do structure like novels do, or narrative complexity, or anything even approaching what even a bog standard novelist can do with prose.

At the risk of sounding wanly, they're two different mediums. There's totally some stuff you can't do in books you can in comics.
And with big-titted women in spandex as well.

Well of course.
Hence calling comics comics, and novels novels.

Are you really sorry to reply to your own thead?
Or are you just a really, really, really needy prick, that just couldn’t live with the idea that his thread had no replies?
I'm not judging just asking

Nah, I did the Q as a tribute to AB, then a few minutes later had the Asterix/ Tintin thought.
You know, as people do, things occur to them later on.

So you aint a needy prick then?

Not needy enough that I run around every single thread, tugging on people's sleeves and sucking up to the big boys, no.

prison does terrible things to a man

(, Thu 7 Mar 2013, 22:52, Reply)
I wish I could tell you that the rattly bell fought the good fight, and that Momo let him be.
I wish I could tell you that - but prison is no fairy-tale world. He never said who did it, but we all knew. Things went on like that for a while - prison life consists of routine, and then more routine. Every so often, the rattly bell would show up with fresh bruises. Momo kept at him - sometimes he was able to fight 'em off, sometimes not. And that's how it went for the rattly bell - that was his routine. I do believe those first two years were the worst for him, and I also believe that if things had gone on that way, this place would have got the best of him.
