I've recently discovered a comic that's better than Asterix.
OMG, I bet you never thought it possible. But it's true. I have discovered a comic book written by the same guy that wrote the original Asterix stories (Rene Goscinny... there's an accent on one of the vowels, but I forget which one), and has a better storyline and funnier jokes.
Don't recognise the guy in the pic? I refer to the one and only IZNOGOUD!!
Well, that's not technically true. I've been reading the german comics, so really I've actually been reading Isnogud. There are only, like, 8 comics published in Englilsh (intentional speeling error), out of 27. So I thought, I'd better buy a load of german ones instead.
Enough of that. The one thing that Iznogoud has that Asterix has is... NEKKID WIMIN LOL [ahem not that I'm saying that's a good thing XO]
As you will notice, that is not in fact a nekkid wimin but in fact, a semi-nekkid fairy. What I don't understand is that he's oggling her now, when later she is completely naked (I AM NOT KIDDING) and he doesn't really care.
In conclusion, even though I don't really have much in the way of back-up info, Iznogoud is the funniest comic I have ever read. And my dad agrees... even though he can't read german.
But enough about Iznogoud. [ps go here: http://www.iznogoudworld.com/ and download the game - it's completely mad. Also, if you search in the 'News' section, you get a lovely free 8-page comic]
My Ma thinks I'm becoming 'fashionable'. She told me recently to find some shirts on the internet. So I did - I chose the 'Trogdor - 5 years' shirt from Homestarrunner.com. Her remark was, "Oh. Next you'll be into pop music and makeup and stuff." That offended me, but the hopeful smile on her face made it worse.
Well I'm going now. Sorry I rambled about Iz a bit much, there. So as a 'SORRY FOR BEING AN OBSESSIVE ASPIE' gift, have a lovely picture.
