I just read the two volumes that have been translated into English and I love them. The art, humor and characters are great. Is there any chance that Fantagraphics will translate any more volumes?

Anyone know if shops in London that sell BDs? I can find some of the bigger titles online but would like to know if there’s any shops in London that stock BDs specifically. Thanks!

Franco-Belgian hardcover comic book, color, for ages 15 and up, semi-realistic, adventure with erotic scenes. A village is pillaged by pirates, and the captain kidnaps the hero's red-haired wife. The hero infiltrates the same ship, where he observes her through a porthole. Thanks for your help!

Hi all, since Europe Comics closed its website I've fallen out of the loop. Are there still publishers publishing BD in English?

How do you find out about upcoming/new releases?

When I was a kid, my mother would read me some comics with anthropomorphic animals going on small adventures. All light hearted stuff. The book was in french. I'm not 100% sure it was originally french. I wouldn't have known the difference at the time.

I don't remember what type of animals but I think it was mostly forest type creatures and mostly european setting. (no jungle or sci fi or anything like that) But I think there were no human characters.

I think the animals were kids and their parents would often give them big stacks of pancakes at the end of the adventure. I think pancakes with jam on top? I remember vividly plates with like 20 pancakes in a stack with jam or syrup on top as a recurring motif.

I remember one story about of one the characters building a wooden house.

The art style was simple and colorful. It felt more european than american.

I unfortunately don't remember much more than that.

Does this ring any bells at all? Any hints where I should look?

Never mind, I just found it. Searching crepe confiture BD. One image had a young bear holding a plate with 20 pancakes and a jar of jam on top. lol

It's Petzi!
