I just discovered TinTin, after a friend lent me his.
Good stuff, and the movie is coming out.

Never read Asterix, but I want to.

Subject: [Groop] OT Asterix



I’ve been re-reading all my old “Asterix” comix for the first time in about twenty-five years and had forgotten just how wonderful they are…  Never appreciated the amusing word-play last time around… BUT definitely notice that the words don’t always fit in the bubbles… guess it’s symptomatic of the translation process – anyone know if it was corrected in later editions or is this just tolerated in translated versions of all comics ?? And for some reason (???) I’ve also got this desire to re-visit the Tintin books but second hand prices seem to be high for some reason (????) and the new hardback collections all seem to be in a small  A5 format… why why why !!!
