I wish I’d read Dune recently, but it’s been some years, and everything Dune-related sort of blends together in my mind in to an amorphous fog. That’s based on reading books 1-4, I think. They weren’t hard to read for me, but they contained so many ideas and content that I feel I’d almost need an academic course to put everything in perspective and examine the various themes properly.

Absolutely, I reread Dune every few years and Frank Herberts´s style and ideas impress me every time again.

I was never really interested in SW but I have been watching ST from an early age. ST ist the perfect stuff to run when I just want to chill, it almost became a kind of screensaver for me.

I really like the Pratt and Moebius panels! Is the Pratt panel from Corto Maltese? I agree, don´t think there is the one Arzach, the guy seems to exist in a lot of timelines/universes. As always reading your commentary on the images was a pleasure.

I´m sorry to hear that and hope he will pay on time. Maybe he has mental issues that keep him from doing it?

I enjoyed reading it, appreciated the weird humor and the ugliness.

Your comment was simply what went trough your mind in that moment, nothing wrong with it and for sure nothing important enough to fuck with your mind.

Haha, that was a bit of a wacky post above.

I liked it!

Yesterday I finished off a huge job on Calvin’s apartment

I am happy you made it on time, well done!

treated myself to some of his fine booze Oh, my head…

lol

Anyway, yeah, I think you have the spirit of scanlation. Other definitions you’ll find online. It’s a bit of a touchy subject, as we don’t want to take away proper royalties to the creators, you know? Part of why we say ‘extracts are fine, but no pirated links!’ in the sidebar.

Im am undecided in the matter, I want artists to get every penny they deserve for their work. On the other hand, I think most people who pirate graphic novels do it because otherwise they simply could not afford reading them. At the same time people who can afford buying graphic novels will often pirate and then buy the stuff they like, so pirating can even increase sales.

Anyway, I’m not sure if I’m fully “back” yet, but we’ll see.

No pressure mate, take your time.

I really appreciate your focus on Jodo’s Dune series lately

Thank you, happy that you like it!

and in any case, there’s a HUGE archive of posts here for anyone wanting more EGN+ content! :D

Exactly! Just think of our first few months streak for example. I think I have to go back sometime and look at all those cool posts! :D

Das erste Buch ist ausreichend, mehr geht immer wenn du dann möchtest :)

Oh, sehr interessant! Das ist sogar noch eine andere Version des Bildes, der Blickwinkel ist ca. 45° nach vorne gedreht. Das Bild aus dem Script ist hingegen eine Seitenansicht aus dem 90° Winkel. Beim Betrachten wird mir mal wieder klar wie virtuos Giger organische und technische Strukturen verschmelzen lässt!
