darthfar: A [suitably miserable greeting] Barricade Day to you all! As you can see, I’m late this time around… but still in time for you lot to swear at me. ;) What’s that? A Barricade Day comic without any barricade fighting sequences? Well… if you’re M. Mabeuf and you’re the first to die…. LOL. I’ll admit that Mabeuf’s decline and death affected me more than perhaps any other in the book (except maybe the death of all the Amis?), and I’ve always wanted to tell his story, so that’s what you’re getting this year around. [Also I’ve always admired the aesthetics of plain black and white comics, and have been meaning to try my hand at it.] @pilferingapples, you were wrong about this being Mme. Plutarch’s death, but you were so, so, very close. ;) [I had initially planned to kill off Joly and Bossuet in a comic for this Barricade Day, but changed said plans at the last minute. Don’t worry, I’ll get around to it… eventually.] -- source link
