Title: Funny comic strip about Darkness
Post by: SnoWeb on February 03, 2012, 08:11:51 am
Boulet is a French cartoonist I like a lot. He's regularly publishing very good and free short stories on his blog. He recently started to translate his work in English.
As his latest publication is more or less element related (the title is darkness), I thought I could advertise a bit here.

Read "Darkness" here. (http://english.bouletcorp.com/2012/02/01/darkness/)

This is sooooo loosely related to elements. Still, pretty funny.

Simple, but super cute. :) I can TOTALLY imagine someone from an earlier time in the forums (*coughdarknesscough*) that would probably love reading this.

Thanks again SnoWeb. ^^

Many thanks for showing me this comic, and especially for introducing Boulet's work - outstanding talent. I've read through almost all of his comics in one sit, and it was a great experience.

Fell in love with this one the instant; so fitting and scary..

Thanks again :]

"Darkness" now in Japanese (http://english.bouletcorp.com/2012/02/02/%E6%84%81%E3%81%84%E3%81%AE%E7%BE%8E%E7%94%B7/)! Woooooooooooo

Yeah - I can only agree. Sadly in English you loose a bit of the cultural background. Also he started the translation of his work in 2010 and his French blog in 2004. So some of it is lost to the non-French speaker.

Browsing through his work I found another mildly Element related strip: Helios and Thanatos (http://www.bouletcorp.com/blog/2010/10/27/)
It is not translated but it should not be a big problem as there are only two sentences (in French) at the end. If anyone of you find the English version it would be nice to link it.
