Poor Robert Pattinson. No matter how many other jobs he takes in however many other wildly and radically different genres of screen roles, a significant class of idiots will never see him as anything more than the sparkly vampire guy.

It’s just a cute nickname - Monya has apparently never had one before.

Isn't... Nyan supposed to be the Japanese onomatopoeia for a cat? Like 'wan' is for a dog?

Nyan does happen to be the sound a cat makes, yes. Here I don’t think it’s supposed to make you think of a cat necessarily, it’s just a cute play on Monya’s name.

I must have had a Guindon book when i was a youngster - i remember all of these - thanks for posting them, i'd forgotten how good they are, nice without being sickly sweet like some comics i know (yes Rose is Rose i'm talking to you).
And yes i'm way behind in reading the thread - it'll probably be a week before i come across my own comment, hello future me, this is from your past you.

quote:

Jucika was the first ongoing comic published in Érdekes Újság from 1957 until the paper's merger with the then-relaunched Ország-Világ in '59. The series then moved to the comedy magazine Ludas Matyi ("Mattie the Goose-boy"), which was even referenced in one of the strips where Jucika tries to charm the magazine mascot Matyi to get hired, only to get foiled by his goose.
