Probably was you Domingos, I’ve gotten a lot of recommendations off your site/posts/comments. I haven’t read Les Hommes-loups yet either. It was out of stock when I ordered Par les Sillons.

I think that I gave you the _Par les sillons_ tip, Derik… I think that _Les hommes loups_ by Dominique Goblet went with it at the time too, but I’m really not sure about any of this. (I still did not buy that last one, by the way…)

I need to get my hands on a copy of World Trade Angels, but more than that I’d like to find Cillufo’s New Wanted (less of a language barrier there). Seriously, let me know if you ever come across it this side of the Atlantic, or with relatively cheap shipping. (please)

It’s possible by now that I’ve entirely inflated the book’s expected impact in my mind, but I just gotta know for sure.

Thought this was a really.. um, fair? review. I guess my reactions to each strip were strikingly similar. So, it’s just nice to see that confirmed somewhere.

Oh yeah, but that would be the case anywhere. I thought it was a step-up from MoCCA in that regard (except the lack of wall of international artists at MoCCA which I always like perusing).

I forgot to mention in the beginning to the TCAF model, which I believe is an application process. You can apply to show, but the organizers still curate. That seems like an interesting model.

TOO negative? No, not at all. It’s just as you say — you’re not into a lot of the stuff people seemed most excited about making and buying there.
