Just finished "Barda" by Ngozu Ukadi. I don't normally grab classic comics or their modern successors from the library, and this exception to that rule has reminded me why I prefer to stick with other stuff, especially indie graphic novels: the stories are just so blocky & uninspired. I don't say "childish" since there are plenty of great books in the kids graphic novel section that I've enjoyed. It's also true that *some* of the classic stuff is deeper than the rest. But the average "comic" is not going to be very high on my list of stuff I enjoy, and this, while passable, was no exception to that generalization.
Still might look for other stuff by this author, since I'm pretty sure a lot of the issues with mainline comics can be publisher-dictated.

Super Heroes – Comics
In Belgium and France, we have a very traditional way of making comics — or strips in Dutch. This style is known as Franco-Belgian comics, and I bet everyone knows at least a few: Tintin, Asterix, The Smurfs, Lucky Luke… classics.

The Oatmeal comic about "AI" "art" is great, but I have to critize the "I like AI, I use AI" part; there's a selection bias at work—he sees the generated "art" as very obviously for what it is, (dehumanizing low-effort slop) but doesn't make the logical conclusion that this is true for _any type of output_ (e.g. text); it always dehumanizing low-effort slop that's not worth looking at, listening to or reading.

Just finished "Forest Hills Bootleg Society" by Dave Baker and Nicole Goux. It's a very interesting queer teen graphic novel that's got a complicated plot. It also does some excellent things with the comic medium that I haven't seen elsewhere, letting us get glimpses of the inner lives of dozens of background characters.
I'm definitely interested in reading more from these authors.
