Hello from France
Hello guys,
I'm from France, and I've decided to join the forum after lurking for a few weeks. I'm working as a consultant in IT, currently on project management missions. I'm reading a lot, in french, english and italian, mainly fiction paper books and comics (french format, not american format). In a perfect world, I would be writing books on top of reading them, but I'm mostly collecting ideas at the current stage. I've had a Palm Tungsten T5 for a few years now, but I did not use it to read a lot. After a review of the current playing field, triggered by the release of the Kindle, I've decided to continue to use it for at least a few months in order to see how things evolve. |

Bon jour and welcome to the Forum. How do French comics differ from American in format?

In order to explain this, I think it's easier to quote a Wikipedia article :
Quote:
- the size : here, most of the time, the page is in A4 format - the length : an album is usually 48 to 60 pages, and a story runs most of the time on 3 to 6 albums, I'd say. There are longer series, over 20 albums, but they are far from being the majority. |
