I just realized that my wife had a copy of Tintin : L'île noir which I haven't read yet, so I'll being doing much the same. :-) The nice thing about BDs is that if you don't like one series, there's always something else to try. The Renaud-Bray bookstores in Montreal usually have several hundred series in stock, and I love to wander up and down the aisles flipping through the books. The closest online equivalent is probably izneo (which geoffw mentioned on my log). I just spent a whole $4 on some parts to jury-rig a DIY Book Scanner. If this works, I want to upload a few sample pages from Persepolis, Stalag IIB, Immigrants and Siegfried. There's just so much cool stuff for such a range of tastes. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

I read about "Immigrants" on your log before, it seems very interesting indeed!
Let me say your log showed me comics / graphic novels may be something worth trying. It's an undiscovered territory for me - maybe I'll find something I'm gonna like.:) In my local library in Switzerland, there were tons of BDs. I was so busy with books, audiobooks, movies and music though, that I've never even taken a look at them. :( Edited by Julie on 10 January 2013 at 4:16am 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Jag vet det, jag har läst din logg och darför har jag börjat att titta på "Mysteriet...".
Tack så mycket! Jag är alltid glad när det finns människor som läser min logg :). Har du gillat "Svenska med sång"? De där sångerna är som sånger till barn men man kan sjunga alla. OK, that's enough of Swedish writing, jag är mycket trött :). I hope there aren't too many errors here :). I watched 9 more episodes of the series, and I realized that I hadn't watched the last few minutes of episode 8. I'm glad I remembered that because otherwise I would have missed the scene where the protagonist starts to speak Danish, as well as the following dialog: - Varför pratar du så konstigt? (Why are you speaking in such a strange way?) - Det är inte konstigt. Det är danska. Det er dansk. (It's not strange. It's Danish. Det er dansk.) :) Edited by Julie on 13 January 2013 at 1:23am 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

Hi, Julie!
I’m dropping by just to tell you that it seems that the bug’s disappeared and if you can read this it means that now I can finally post in your log. I’m happy you enjoy watching SVT: that’s something we have in common. By the end of the year you, Kez and I might end up as the three Vikings with most hours of Swedish-TV under our belts. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

It seems that one bug (log) has been replaced by another (PM)... lucky us ;)
@Emme, watching SVT is great, and once again thanks for your recommendations! By the way, if it weren't for your and sans-serif's posts, I probably wouldn't have realized that there are subtitles.... and subtitles really boosted my viewing experience :). 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Yes, subtitles are great! I try to watch programmes without reading them, but there’s always a word or a sentence that I can’t get (well, more than just one!). When I feel I risk getting lost in an ocean of incomprehensible audio, I take a look at the subtitles and my understanding simply doubles or triples just like that. And you have to admit it’s a great sensation when you suddenly can make sense of what was puzzling you only a few seconds ago.
