The Forbidden Planet International Blog Log

Earlier this year Wim posted on the growth of the French language comics blogosphere (see here), which has now reached a level where even the holies of holies in the Francophone comics calendar, the Angoulème Festival, added a special award recognising online comics work. In his introduction to some of the more interesting French language BD creators online now one of the artists Wim singled out as someone we should be watching out for was Lord Yoyo, who he described as “semi-autobiographical anecdotes from the life of cartoonist and illustrator Johan Vinet, Him Of Orange Hair.  Quite funny, often zany or absurd, but never bland.” Well, Lord Yoyo has since been in touch with us to say that he’s also now posting some of his comics blog work in English as well as French, so even if you don’t know any French at all you can still go and enjoy it.
