@Eidon The pleasure is mine!

And Robe of Feathers is amazing...

@Eidon Well put, thank you very much!

This reminds me of #Tezuka‘s Star System, in which he used the same range of archetypal characters in different time periods or places.

In Phoenix (火の鳥), e.g., the characters transcend their individuality and (re-)appear millennia later, expressing a similar function or attitude
.
This does bear semblance to Bach‘s mathematical approach, as Tezuka designs a very structured architecture of life itself.

Thank you for making that clear to me!

@Eidon As someone who considers #comics and #manga as much closer to music than its supposed sibling #animation, I find your Bach/Chopin comparison very intriguing.
If you feel like it and find the time, I would be happy if you could elaborate.

@cypnk All you people making jokes about Tantalos and I never seem to grasp what's so funny about him.

Glad to see that the Goethe Institute India included #Moresukine, my ancient webcomic from #Tokyo, in their collection of so-called Graphic Travelogues.

The website’s a fun assembly of (mostly German-speaking) artists and their autobiographical travel #comics from all over the world.

An offer to my #privacy-concerned #Berlin bubble:

If you’re a bit freaked out about #Apple’s content scanning plans and feel like it would be interesting to test the waters with alternative OSes, I could help you set up Linux-based #SailfishOS.

Admittedly, I’m not very techy and can’t guarantee that we’ll get there, but I have flashed a few devices and all ended up running the Finnish OS without problems.

DM me if you’re interested.

In the mid-nineties I went to a #NeilGaiman signing at my local comics store.

I brought my first #Sandman paperback from home because I couldn't afford to buy anything from that signing, and stood in line with my best friend and fellow #comics nerd.

And I remember being awfully proud that Neil, after taking a quick look at us, advised my friend to “Dream a little,” whereas he signed my comic with an encouraging “Dream On”.
​​

Speaking of #Sandman, I've now re-read the whole #comics series ahead of the coming Netflix adaptation and will share a few random thoughts and impressions in the coming weeks.

It aged surprisingly well, all in all, and holds its ground as a comics classic.
