Comics Compilations made by Voltaire57

 

SeulementBD (Only Comics) is a website that features a new French comic book every day. Three Sundays a month these albums are in English, mostly American ones. All of them are preceded by an introduction that gives various insights, about the authors or related to the historical context. These forewords are always in French, while the comics remain in English.

Quite often these albums feature complete series but there are also anthologies dedicated to a particular author i.e. Alex Toth, magazine i.e. The Unexpected or character i.e. Blackbow the Cheyenne. These albums are almost always presented as part of a collection entitled Bibliotheca Virtualis (Virtual Library).

Now it’s time to have a look at them !
