So here's a little bit of Clementine Cherie, circa 1955-59 by the copyright dates in my book.  My copy looks like this (photo, not a scan, so the top is a little out of focus, sorry)  But these are apparently original art panels I found on an auction site just now. These specifically appear to be from a French collection entitled "Clementine en Vacace." I'll add the English-translated captions from my book. I have no idea how accurate they are to the original gags, but they look right, at least:  "You think maybe black and white is too conservative for me?"  "A big girl like you ought to change in the bath house."  "You're not the first to take me for Clementine's sister!"  "Why don't you two come out of that stuffy place and have some fun?"  "In some ways, your father is still a little boy."  "Do you accept traveler's checks?"  "George! You're so romantic!"  "Vacation's over, Clementine."

Fingerpori Must be made by Elon Musk or something. (a cottage axe isn't like a specific thing or anything. A lot of people in Finland just have summer cottages, and very few of them have electricity* so going to the summer cottage means chopping a lot of wood) * more now that solar power is a thing. Buying a 3000 euro solar panel system is a lot more manageable than getting the municipality to install power lines to your cottage in the boondocks.

Julet Esqu posted:For a short while someone was posting Mark Trail from the beginning. It wasn't hugely popular with the thread and maybe that's why they stopped, but I liked it. The biggest reason I liked it was that Cherry was a brassy lady who would actively participate in adventures along with Mark. The strip was sexist and outdated like anything from that era would be, but at least Cherry got to do things outside of arguing with the garden society lady about begonias or hat decorations or whatever. I feel like her first appearance was giving Mark the business because he attacked her pet bear. This is also how I remember early Mark Trail and I gotta be honest, when you juxtapose them like that, it's kind of hard to really compartmentalize original flavor Mark Trail as being the more sexist of the two.

Shaman Tank Spec posted:Fingerpori They installed power a few years ago to my parents cottage, so they installed an air-air heat pump. So now they got AC (because these things can cool as easily as warm) at the cottage but not at home and when it gets too hot in summer, as summers are nowadays, they leave for the cottage to cool down. Likewise I have a heatpump in my garage to keep it warm over winter, and I found out it has AC so now I can chill in my garage if my house gets too hot. Feels kinda ludicrous. Also accept only Billnäs axes no substitutes

Zereth posted:We might still be in the "stuff made to pitch it to the syndicates" phase like the first monthish of new Trail was. Remember how that had a sudden massive drop in art quality? It's still too early to say how it's going to shake out long term. Well, from what I've seen of Schkade's other work, I don't think that's going to be a problem. Clementine... Well, it's certainly as horny as Jucika. Though I wouldn't say it is as charming (yet).

Sometimes people who get into growing weed for the weed learn that they enjoy the growing process and wind up with some pretty great gardening skills.

Samovar posted:So, with the end of the year approaching, I was thinking about re-posting Corto and Blueberry from the beginning (my probing of Buddy Longway as an alternative translation project making me feel... A bit uneasy re. representation of Native Americans, more so than Blueberry!) I love Blueberry, and would gladly read it all again. The artwork is stunning, particularly the attention to character detail, and the translation was excellent. Kinda miss them all. The chief clue that this was written by a non-American of the period is that the First Peoples are at least the equals, and in matters of the land far more wise, than those that came (& usurped) later.
