For some weekend reading, I present the bittersweet Gospodin Libar (Mister Bookseller), a short story in comic form by Darko Macan and Tihomir Celanovic. Originally published in Croatian, a comic enthusiast has lovingly translated and re-lettered the comic into English, and I’m glad she did. If you’re a bibliophile, you’ll love this story.
I’ve posted the first two pages here, and you can read the full eight pages over at the comic site here.

oh my god beautifully drawn!

the original link of the whole comics is gone now, any idea where to find the entire 8 pages?
I had read it many years ago, and just thought of it earlier today, so I tried to find it to show to someone else.
I succeeded.

Sorry to be a downer but this isn't very well-written, nor is it even the least bit interesting or thought provoking. Decent illustrations, I suppose.
